Profile
The South African rand, or simply the rand, is the official currency of South Africa. It is subdivided into 100 cents, a comma separates the rand and cents.
The South African rand is legal tender in the Common Monetary Area member states of Namibia, Lesotho, and Eswatini, with these three countries also having national currencies pegged with the rand at parity and still widely accepted as substitutes. The rand was also legal tender in Botswana until 1976, when the pula replaced the rand at par.
The rand is legal tender in Zimbabwe as part of its multiple currency system, which also includes other currencies, such as the euro, the pound sterling, the US dollar, and the Zimbabwean ZiG. Wikipedia
