You get the exact one shown here: INVENTORY #. 1 OUNCE SILVER PROOF. 2 Rand face value / denomination. COIN IN CAPSULE, INCLUDES DISPLAY CASE AND COA. LIGHT TO MODERATE TONING WITH A VERY SLIGHT PINK & RAINBOW HUE. This has very faint pink and rainbow toning. This color is barely detectable but is definitely there. The seahorse coin is a very popular coin that has significant demand. It has a great design that collectors love. Examples are relatively common but are by no means cheap. This coin is often described as RARE!!! But that is not true. Numerous examples are easy to find and if someone describes this coin as’rare’,’scarce’, etc they are either misinformed or dishonest (or a mixture of both). The people that describe these as being rare are either ignorant or are being willfully deceptive. This includes a COA or Certificate of Authenticity from the South African Mint. Here we have a good example at a competitive price that has a nice appearance. This has no readily apparent defects aside from toning and the clear, focused, large images affords you the chance to examine it closely. I’ve taken photos from several different angles to give a good idea of its condition. I sell sealed sets also. You may want to check out my other items as I have lots of South African silver coins, included graded and raw coins. I’ll be listing a limited number of other types of Mint-Sealed South African silver coins in the next few days.

Units from the British Army, Royal Navy, colonial forces who took part (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, India and South Africa), civilians employed in official capacity and war correspondents. The QSA (without bar) was also awarded to troops who guarded Boer prisoners of war at the POW camp on the island of St. Troops on the Mediterranean islands were awarded the Queen’s Mediterranean Medal, and some personnel on troopships got the Transport Medal. The QSA was the medal issued to all who served in South Africa up to the end of the war in May 1902. This included those such as the New Zealand 10th Contingent who arrived in Durban in May 1902, and did not fight. The requirements for the King’s South Africa Medal meant that few were issued.
