Switzerland's first Federal Coinage Act introduced the franc in 1850, replacing a mess of cantonal coins. By one estimate some 8,000 different coins and notes circulated beforehand. The Swiss National Bank has issued the banknotes since 1907, when it took over from the cantons and private banks.

South Africa introduced the rand in 1961, three months before declaring itself a republic, replacing the pound at two rand per pound. The name comes from the Witwatersrand, the gold-bearing ridge Johannesburg sits on (rand is Afrikaans for ridge). The South African Reserve Bank issues it.
