The South African standard currency is known as the rand (R) -- from the Witwatersrand, Rand for short, the region containing the country's fabulous gold mines that have changed its history. The rand (money) is divided into hundred cents (c). One-cent and two-cent coins are however no longer minted because of their extremely low value. Other coins are 5c, 10c, 20c and 50c. The rand itself is also a coin, as well as the R2 and R5. Paper money starts with the R10 note.
