An extremely rare and sought after issue, our research has established that a 10 Pence Silver, described as choice mint state was sold in Australia in 2007 realised $17,250 Australian Dollars, The Griqua Coinage is South Africa's first autonomous coinage and forms an important part of South African numismatic history. Cataloguers note: Griquatown is situated in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa. The town, formerly named Klaarwater, was established in April 1805 by missionary William Anderson of the London Missionary Society. The Griquas were formidable traders who understood the concept of money, acting as middlemen between the colony and the northern nations. The coinage was minted in four denominations: 1/4 and 1/2 pence in copper, and 5 and 10 pence in silver. The coins circulated for no more than two years before being withdrawn and smelted. The South African Mint struck a Commemorative 5 Rand marking the 200th Anniversary coin in 2015 with the reverse featuring the dove design
