On May 3, the improved coins and banknotes for the nation were unveiled by the Nelson Mandela Foundation and the South African Reserve Bank (SARB). Even though they don't deviate too much from the existing issue, the new banknotes and coins have fresh designs and increased security measures. The new currency, which is acknowledged as legal tender, is anticipated to go into circulation this week. Remember that current coins and banknotes will still be accepted. Nelson Mandela's image and the "Big Five" animals are still on the new banknotes.
The notes now show adult animals and their young as the SARB chose to emphasize family. The color of the notes has also been altered.
