Description from the seller
SOUTH AFRICA. Pretoria. 5 Shillings. 1960. Queen Elizabeth II (1952–2022).
- Value: 5 Shillings
- Year: 1960
- Reign: Queen Elizabeth II (1952–2022)
- Inscriptions: SUID-AFRIKA · 1960 · SOUTH AFRICA · 5 s. END RAG MAAK MAG · UNITY IS STRENGTH · 1910 · 1960
- Grade: Uncirculated.
Commemorative coin of the 50th anniversary of the Union of South Africa, established in 1910 as an autonomous dominion of the British Empire. The obverse shows the country’s traditional coat of arms, representing its four original provinces. The reverse features the Parliament Building (Union Buildings) in Pretoria, with the dates 1910 and 1960 surrounded by the national motto in Afrikaans and English. This piece, in Prooflike grade 66, stands out for its excellent preservation and mint luster, being a key numismatic reference of the pre-republican South African period.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to be absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (for example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped at your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs/legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
