Description:

The South African National Anthem pulls together two anthems. Before South Africa's first democratic elections in 1994, the country had two anthems - one official and one regarded as unofficial . The official  anthem was Die Stem (The Call of South Africa) which was written as a poem by C J Langenhoven in 1918 and set to music by Reverend M L de Villiers in 1921 and became the accepted national anthem in 1957.

The unofficial anthem, Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika, was written and composed in 1897 by Enoch Mankayi Sontonga, a teacher at a mission station. It was originally written in isiXhosa as a hymn. Seven additional stanzas were later added by the poet Samuel Mqhayi and the song quickly became popular. 

The merging of the two anthems into one is symbolised on the coin, by the artist, as a "YIN" and "YANG" representation of music staves. The Chinese philosophy of Yin Yang describes two opposing, yet at the same time, complementing aspects of one phenomenon. It is an odd coincidence that both men were born in 1873 and both men became teachers. 

 

All three coins depict the two writers of the new anthem, C J Langenhoven and Enoch Sontonga, interwoven and joined by musical notes of the first stanza of each of the combined anthems.
