I want to know the reason why coins were specifically introduced for the denominations of 2 and 5 rand. What was the necessity or advantage of having these particular coins in circulation? Why were coins introduced for the 2 & 5 rand?

The main reason for this replacement was the severe wear and tear experienced with low-denomination notes in circulation.
