    Among my collection of foreign coins, I have some South African 20 cent pieces from 1962. Normally these would be ignored by most people, other than the fact that they are 50% pure silver and contain 0.1818 oz ASW in each one. When looking in "2017 Standard Catalog of World Coins 1901-2000" 44th edition, there are two varieties shown for South Africa KM#61 20 Cents 1962. The text shows that there exists both small 2 and large 2 varieties in this date. The question I have pertains to what the value of the Large 2 variety may be. In the text it simply shows dashes in place of values as shown for the small 2 variety. In my collection I have both varieties of this date. The small 2 variety I have is in XF/AU condition, and the large 2 variety is in F/VF condition.

    I have searched online for more information on this, but it is very limited. I found some photographs that I was able to use to verify that I did indeed have both varieties. If anyone has any thoughts on what the rarity of this variety may be, the value of it, or why the text simply shows dashes for this, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Thank you.
