In this video, I explore the South African R5 coin, including the Nelson Mandela R5 coins. From its origins as a commemorative coin honoring the presidential inauguration, to its current status as a popular circulation coin featuring the South African wildebeest and various important events, we delve into the history and significance of this small but mighty piece of currency.
Unfortunately, the Internet is rife with scams around the R5 coin and even though the coin is very special, it's worth only face value. I cover all the years and show each and every commemorative version of the coin.
Whether you're a numismatist, a traveler looking to learn more about South Africa, or simply curious about the coins in your pocket, this video is for you. So sit back, relax, and let's dive into the world of the South African R5 coin together!
Special thanks again to George Human for sponsoring a complete R5 set... I owe you!
