1996 South Africa 5 Cents

Found this on the floor in construction zone at work, also found a bunch of American change. Construction areas, renovations, and moving of furniture are great times to search for lost money. Many times foreign coins are tossed in areas like this on purpose.

AFRIKA-DZONGA is South Africa in the Tsonga language and was added in 1996. The other side has a Blue Crane and the value of 5 c. South African coins features native animals and the national coat of arms. They are pretty common and the copper plating is on steel so it will have little value for now.

Here's the stats for this coin...
Type/Country: 5 Cents / South Africa
Year: 1996
Mintage: 101,000,000 (estimated) Metal: Copper-Plated Steel
Value: $0.15 in XF
