With a mintage of only 148,000, this is one of the more desirable late-19th-century ZAR silver coins, and high-quality circulated examples are increasingly difficult to find. This is an attractive 1897 South Africa (ZAR) 2 Shillings, a historic silver issue from the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek under President Paul Kruger. This example falls between XF and AU, offering excellent detail, strong remaining luster, and beautiful natural toning that enhances its originality. This is the exact coin you will receive. It has a nice stroke and attractive toning. Only 148,000 minted. Country: South Africa (ZAR). Weight: 11.2 grams. Diameter: 29.08 mm. 925 fine (10.46g ASW). Obverse: Bust of Paul Kruger. Reverse: Arms of the South African Republic. Eye Appeal: Attractive natural toning with a strong, even strike.
