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.

Israel's new shekel arrived on January 1, 1986, issued by the Bank of Israel. It replaced the old shekel at 1,000 to one after inflation in the early 1980s spiraled out of control and the 1985 Economic Stabilization Plan finally brought it under control.
