A look at the new R25 coin from SA Mint

Beautiful. Its not going to be circulated, is it?

 

[Pineapple Smurf]

Very Nice

Not in general circulation. It can be purchased from their retail stores at a much higher price than the face value of R25. They are for coin collectors mostly.

 

[Zenbaas]

Very nice.

Hmm, we need circulation quality R10, R20 and R50 coins.

Everything under 50c needs to go.

Considering that the Rand is worth less than 1/100th of what it used to be, this is well overdue.

You certainly need that extra few weeks of school.

You missed the point, homie.

Rise of the dinosaurs? Really? Sounds like the title of a kiddies movie lol.

 

[genetic]

You missed the point, homie.

Needs to mint himself a new pair of fine silver spectacles.

Firstly, these are only collector coins. Secondly, they are extremely over-priced. Never buy coins from the Mint. Wait a few months and you can buy them at close to bullion value from those who burnt their fingers.

 

[Jola]

You don't get it, do you?

What don't I get, I said circulation coins.

And the ZAR is worh nothing nowadays, so what is your issue ???

 

[Jola]

You missed the point, homie.

Did you read what I said, or are you just unable to understand ?

I lose coins all the time, losing a R5 is no loss but losing R50

I suggest you read what you wrote, and decide whether you honestly think that it doesn't create the impression that you thought these coins are legal tender.

No, you need new spectacles, read what I said. Don't have a clue, do you ?

 

[Jola]

Nope, read it again, I wasn't even talking about those coins, I specifically referred to circulation quality coins.

You really need to take some reading / comprehension classes.

At worst you can accuse me of being off topic.
