South African Bank Note Company, Pretoria, South Africa (1958)Comments
The picture on this note and the similar notes are of the Dutch officer Bartholomeus Vermuyden, from the English civil war. For a long time the picture the image was taken from, was mistankely thought to be of van Riebeeck. This applies to the portrait on all 1948 to 1994 South African Banknotes.
