Informazioni aggiuntive	Southern Rhodesia gained the right to issue its own coinage in 1932 following the establishment of the Currency Board, breaking from the shared South African coinage that had circulated in the territory since 1923. The shilling series was struck at the Royal Mint in London, not Pretoria — a deliberate administrative distance from the Union of South Africa that reflected the colony's distinct self-governing status granted in 1923. Production ran only through 1936, ending with George V's death in January of that year.
