The multilingual coin series introduced in South Africa after 1994 rotated the country's name across eleven official languages on successive years, a deliberate policy choice meant to give equal standing to Zulu, Xhosa, Afrikaans, and the rest. The 2006 issue carries the Zulu form, "iNingizimu Afrika." By this point the series was well into its rotation cycle, with each language appearing roughly once per decade.
