the history of the rand switches from USD to sterling mid paragraph. Either stick to USD or find a more neutral metric to compare against. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.32.46.111 ( talk) 04:07, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Does anyone have access to infomation about the commercial and financial Rand? Something I dimly remember being mentioned in my childhood —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.164.211.86 ( talk) 05:32, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
154.5.45.30: Where did you find the reference to "Afrikaans: range"? This is the first I've heard of it...? ( Dewet 09:08, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC))
How many rands equal to a u.s dollar?
The "new R10" note in the picture is from the series BEFORE the current one. (Although I'm not sure that series HAS a R10 note). The new R20 and up have the EURion-- Taejo 07:18, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
7 Coins! The rand is NOT available as 9 coins but 7, 1 and 2c coins have been discontinued since 2002, and are no longer in circulation. All prices in the republic are rounded to the nearest 5c. Please stop changing it back to 9! It's misleading information. 198.54.202.234 19:56, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
"The plural of rand is rand, not rands." I live in South Africa and often say 'i need five rands' and hear many other people saying it as well. What's the source for this? -- Aliwalla 10:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Are the languages of the coins and bills completely random or what? Is it decided each language would get a certain quota? 惑乱 分からん * \)/ (\ (< \) (2 /) /)/ * ( talk) 20:47, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Is the plural "rand" or "rands?" I downloaded the text of the 1961 Constitution Act of South Africa from a South African government website, and "rand" was referenced in plural form as "rand" (i.e., "the State President's salary is 25,000 rand"). Or are both forms correct? Josh ( talk) 02:30, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
Why is this article not called "South African Rand" - as far as I am aware, the Rand is a proper noun. Socrates2008 ( Talk) 05:46, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
The comment with the old South African notes and coins is wrong. Comment is: "Older notes and coins, mostly out of circulation now." However these are no longer legal tender so can not be in circulation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tanka8 ( talk • contribs) 15:14, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Has the legal tender status of 1 and 2c coins been withdrawn? If so, shouldn't they be not mentioned on the info bar. I think to sey they are uncommon implies that they are still minted etc., just not common (like the US$2 note) otherwise I think they should be removed. Tarcus 07:31, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Now that I've checked the Reserve Bank Website, it says they have only stopped minting them (as of 2002) and they are still legal tender. Sice it apppeaers that no steps are actually being taken to withdraw them from circulation and melt them down, maybe they should even not be considered rare? Tarcus 06:17, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
