1 Shilling

The Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek's 1 Shilling of 1868 is among the earliest paper money issued by the Transvaal government, predating the establishment of any formal banking infrastructure in the territory. C. Moll printed these locally in Pretoria — a rare instance of in-territory production at a time when most colonial and republican governments in southern Africa were contracting presses in London or Amsterdam.

Local printing meant limited technical sophistication and minimal anti-counterfeiting measures. The note's survival rate is extremely low, and most known examples show heavy use consistent with a frontier economy where paper currency was distrusted but necessary.
