How much is a Botswana coin worth?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Botswana coins in circulation (currently the 5thebe, 10thebe, 25thebe, 50thebe, 1pula, 2pula and 5pula) are approximately worth as follows:

To purchase 1US Dollar would cost between 7pula - 8pula

To purchase 1£ (GBP) would cost between 11pula - 12pula

Depending on the current exchange rate which can be confirmed at any forex bureau, bank or on a currency exchange website.

However, if it is a proof coin, which are not circulated and are collection items, it would be worth a lot more, depending on the proof. The very first Botswana coin (a proof) was issued in 1966 (when it achieved Independence from being a British Protectorate on 30/09/1966) and the very first circulated currency was issued in 1976 (between 1966 and 1976 Botswana used the South African currency).

The staple diet is a stiff white porridge made from maize meal, also called mealie meal or papa, which is most commonly eaten with a gravy made from tomato and onions. Other food items include morogo (similar to spinach), samp, seswaa (ground beef), mopani worms (when in season). However, you can get just about any kind of food in Botswana (pizzas, hamburgers, fried chicken etc).
