INDIA MOGUL EMPIRE PAGODA COINAGE USED AT THE CAPE COLONY
A rare coin from a particular historical era has the power to conjure up ghosts of a bygone age. What’s more, if you trace the history of a country’s currency, you’ll learn about how that country developed a national identity. South Africa is a good example. The use of coins in the region dates from the time the first European settlers landed on its shores in 1652. Jan van Riebeeck, a Dutch explorer, established a trading station on behalf of the Dutch East India Company at what would later become known as Cape Town.
A stream of sailors and traders passed through the Cape, bringing with them the currency of their homeland. Although the Dutch guilder was the most common coinage in use, additional currencies were also used to trade with including the Spanish real, Indian rupee, Japanese koban, English guinea, Portuguese joannes, and Russian rouble.
The power of the Dutch crumbled in 1795 when the Dutch East India Company went bankrupt. Great Britain took control over of the region, declaring Cape Town a British colony in 1806. The British introduced their own currency, although a shortfall in change meant that various foreign currencies were allowed to circulate. This changed in 1826 when sterling coinage became the sole legal tender. Source: Coin Week

4 REALES
Long before the modern Guatemalan quetzal was introduced the Mayan civilisation used the tail feathers of the resplendent quetzal (yes ‘resplendent quetzal’ is its official name). The quetzal is now the country’s national bird, and the GTQ was named in honour of the Mayans unique use of the quetzal’s tailfeathers.
Before this, the currency used in colonial Spain was the Spanish colonial real, known in the English world as the Spanish dollar. Spanish dollars were used throughout South America by the Spanish, but also often by the British, French, and other colonial powers from 16th century onwards.
In the 19th century the Spanish colonial real was replaced by the Central American Republic real. The Federal Republic of Central America was formed after declaring independence from Spain in 1821, and began circulating Central American reals in 1824.
In 1839 the Central American Republic was dissolved and twenty years later Guatemala formally introduced the Guatemalan peso, which lasted until 1925 when it was finally replaced by the Guatemalan quetzal.
