Meet The Creatives Behind The New SA25 Coins. The new coins are dedicated to recognizing 25 years of constitutional democracy. To reinvigorate national pride, the South African Mint together with the South African Reserve Bank, developed six new commemorative circulation coins. The artists are as follows;
