South Africa ½-CENT (KM81)

Cape Sparrow

In 1965, the Kruger Gray Cape Sparrows design was replaced with this design by Tommy Sasseen, first on the one cent piece (KM65), then on this half-cent coin. Unlike the one cent issue which had two versions, this issue features a bilingual obverse (English and Afrikaans).
