The Union of South Africa emerged after the Anglo - Boer War in 1910 following the example of the Commonwealth of Australia and united two British colonies and two Boer republics. Like other British dominions, South Africa gradually expanded its powers until it received full autonomy in internal and external affairs. In 1961, the Republic of South Africa (South Africa) was proclaimed. This coin was minted in memory of George VI who died in 1952.
