| Additional information |
This series spans the final years of apartheid and the transition that followed — the 1994 date falls within months of the April elections that brought the ANC to power. Yet the coins themselves changed nothing immediately; the bilingual SOUTH AFRICA / SUID-AFRIKA design, a holdover from the segregation-era convention of equal Afrikaans and English status, continued unchanged through 1995 while the new government debated what a post-apartheid coinage should look like.
