| Reverse description | The brass centre depicts a collage of historic South African Reserve Bank banknotes and coins spanning the institution's 90-year history, including a prominent early banknote and various circulating coins such as the 5 Rand, R10, and R20 denominations, evoking the visual heritage of South African currency. The date range '1921-2011' appears prominently at the top of the centre field, and the engraver's initials 'MJS' are present in the lower centre. The outer copper-nickel ring carries the legend '90 YEARS' at the top and '5 RAND' in large letters across the lower portion of the ring, with a decorative patterned border. The overall composition commemorates nine decades of the Reserve Bank's monetary and numismatic legacy. |
