ABOUT THE SOUTH AFRICAN MINT

The South African Mint is responsible for minting all coins of the South African rand on behalf of its owner the South African Reserve Bank. Located in Centurion, Gauteng near South Africa’s administrative capital Pretoria, the mint manufactures coins and planchets for both domestic and international markets. Following the discovery of gold in the South African Republic (causing the 1886 Witwatersrand Gold Rush), the country’s President Paul Kruger decided to establish a national mint. This was established in 1890 and opened on 6 July 1892 in Pretoria. We carry a large selection of both bullion and numismatic coins from The South African Mint.
