Coin deposits at commercial bank branch tellers





DEAR MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC

 

When coins are deposited at a commercial bank, such deposits must follow the
South African Reserve Bank’s (SARB) standards for coin deposits, as outlined in
the tables below.

Coins must be separated per denomination and series and packaged in the mini
plastic coin bags available at commercial banks.

A denomination of a coin refers to its face value, representing the monetary
value assigned to it by the issuing authority (the SARB).

A coin series refers to the different versions of the coin.

For example, the third decimal coin series (3D) refers to the older coin series
that was minted between 1989 and 2022, and the fourth decimal coin series (4D)
refers to the coin series, with new designs, that was launched in May 2023.

Commercial banks will not process coin deposits that are not presented according
to the SARB standards for coin deposits.

 

SARB packing standards for coin deposits at commercial bank branch tellers

When coins are presented for depositing at a bank branch teller, note that the
coins should be packaged by denomination as well as by series, according to the
standards set out in the tables below.
