Beschrijving voorzijde Entirely blank copper field with no design, inscription, or device of any kind. This side corresponds to the so-called 'Kaalpenny' (bare penny), an emergency issue struck on plain copper planchets during the final phase of the Anglo-Boer War. The surface is featureless, exhibiting only the natural texture of the struck copper flan. On the example catalogued as Hern Z63, a raised rim is present; the Hern Z64 variety is distinguished by the complete absence of a rim.

Aanvullende informatie

The "Kaalpenny" — Afrikaans for "bare penny" — takes its name from the plain, unstruck reverse that distinguishes it from the standard issue. These were produced in Pretoria during the final months of the Anglo-Boer War, when the ZAR government was in retreat and the mint operating under severe material and logistical constraints. British forces occupied Pretoria in June 1900, effectively ending organized Republican coinage.

Hern lists two varieties, Z63 and Z64, differentiated by die alignment. Most examples encountered today show little to no circulation wear — the Republic collapsed before meaningful distribution was possible.
