Superunit

Where are we getting R 16,500 as the value of a Krugerrand? It looks like you have to put some value in the template, or else it won’t show, but an oz. of gold is a lot more than R 16.5k right now.

But I’m not convinced the Krugerrand is really a superunit of the rand. It’s legal tender, but it has no fixed value and in fact its price is often quoted in dollars. —Wiki Wikardo 07:21, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Depictions of "Jan van Riebeeck"

It has been common knowledge since about 1985 that the original South African Rand does not, in fact, depict Jan van Riebeeck, but rather Bartholomeus Vermuyden.

Yet other than for a single mention in a single paragraph, the entire article references the depiction of Jan van Riebeeck on the notes.

If there is no objection, I am going to correct all of these mistakes in a few weeks' time. Janneman27 (talk) 05:00, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
