Come on guys, i got the coin in my hands, and i'm telling you that is the same as KM#492, so why uploading the other side? Will not confirm anything. All 5 Rand coins got the same obverse. I got the Mandela coin in my collection as well, 2018, same language. But this one is the normal circulation coin, dated 2018.

Well, all South Africa 5 Rands I see in catalogue were one year issues. This would mean that South Africa is restarting the series? That is why the caution.

Requested referee to have a look, year list is locked on that page, so he will have to unlock it and add new line. <:D Thank you!

Because it is common practice to post both sides of a coin when uploading pictures. If you just show the obverse, there is no evidence the coin you require modification for is actually the same coin...pictures you posted afterwards prove it.

Are both years the same type? The lettering is quite different ...

just a thought
Just call me Bram

No new swaps for the moment, still too many half-ongoing swaps to clean up!
