1965 South African coin featuring the portrait of Jan van Riebeeck
Portrait: The obverse (front) of the coin features a portrait of Johan Anthoniszoon van Riebeeck, a Dutch colonial administrator and the founder of Cape Town.
Country and Year: The coin is from South Africa and was issued in 1965.
Designer: The designer of the coin was Tommy Sasseen, whose initials "T.S." can be found below the neck truncation on the obverse.
Reverse: The specific denomination isn't visible in the image, but 1965 South African coins had various designs on the reverse, such as the Blue Crane bird on the 5 Cent coin or an aloe plant on the 10 Cent coin, both also designed by Tommy Sasseen.
Historical Context: The 1965 coins were part of the Second Decimal Coinage series in South Africa, introduced after the currency was decimalized in 1961, and featured Jan van Riebeeck's portrait until 1969.
