Mosi-oa-Tunya is the
Lozi name for
Victoria Falls and translates into the English language as
The Smoke Which Thunders. The coins weigh one
troy ounce and are made of 22 carat gold. They were minted outside of Zimbabwe. Each coin has a unique serial number. The
Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe distributed 2,000 Mosi-oa-Tunya to commercial banks on 25 June 2022. They can be used for normal retail purposes. The coins were introduced in the context of instability with existing local currency and Zimbabweans' tendency to use the U.S. dollar. The coins are worth the international market rate for a troy ounce of gold, plus five percent. == See also ==
