Interesting fact
The 10 cent coin from South Africa, also known as the "Afrika-Dzonga" coin, features a unique design that showcases the country's rich cultural heritage. On one side of the coin, there is an image of a traditional African hut, surrounded by a pattern of geometric shapes that are inspired by traditional African textiles. This design was created by the South African artist, Themba Mbuyisa, and it was intended to represent the diversity and richness of African culture. It's worth noting that the coin is made of bronze-plated steel and weighs 2.0 grams, which is relatively light compared to other coins of similar denomination. This makes it easy to handle and transport, and it's also a great option for collectors who are interested in unique and interesting coins.
