Its history
The South African 2 rand is a historic gold coin, struck between 1961 and 1983, with a purity of 91,6% (22 carat), containing 7,32 grams of pure gold.
The South African gold 2 rand has a gold content of 916,6/1.000 (22 carats) and contains 7,32 grams of gold. The remaining 0,67 grams consist of copper, which made the coin less fragile and less prone to damage than pure gold coins, as was necessary because of the coin’s constant circulation.
The design of the South African rand depicts the emblem of South Africa: the springbok, a southern gazelle of South Africa, usually depicted on Krugerrands.
