There were apparently few local collectors of South African coinage to preserve these coins during most of the Union period, therefore these sets are considered to be wonderful ccollector's items, from a numismatic point of view

 

1947 to 1952 are the King George VI Short Proof Sets

1953 to 1960 are the Elizabeth II Short Proof Sets

Description:

The Union of South Africa was formed on May 31, 1910 from the two British colonies (Cape Province and Natal) and two independent states of Dutch descent, the Zuid Afrika Republic (ZAR) and the Orange Free State (OFS). The South Africa Union series originated in 1923 with the opening of the South African Mint and continued until 1960 when the Republic of South Africa (RSA) was formed in 1961. The monetary system was based upon the British system of the time and consisted of 9 denominations in the short proof sets, and 11 in the long proof sets: a bronze farthing (1/4D), half penny (1/2D), and Penny (1D); silver three pence (3D or tickey), six pence (6D), shilling (1/), two shillings or florin (2/), 2 ½ shillings or half crown (2/6), and crown (5/); and finally a gold ½ sovereign (1/2 pound) and sovereign/pound.
