Don’t know the exact exchange rate but guessing about R10 to a $.In SA it’s worth 15 canvasses/200 beers/20 tubes of Winsor&Newton paint/6cheap tyres or a 2nd-hand pink girls’ scooter.

Excellent work. I remember he was a famous Guru during the 70’s can’t quite remember the name though. The comment of the first gentleman may have been referring to Richie Havens the folk music icon. Anyway, as I said excellent work.
