Interesting fact
The 5 Cents coin from South Africa features a unique design that showcases the country's rich history and culture. On the obverse side of the coin, there is an image of a traditional San woman, symbolizing the indigenous people of South Africa. The reverse side features a stylized image of a springbok, which is a native antelope species found in the country. The springbok is also a symbol of South Africa's national identity and is featured on the country's coat of arms. I hope you find this information interesting and helpful!
