In South-Central Africa, British mining companies shadowed colonial monetization in an assertive and coercive manner. In the emerging settler states, African money users were obliged to adjust to colonial money for the payment of tax and transactions. Yet they often found it difficult to obtain access to colonial currency. Company rule in the region was initially closely connected to the South African economy, but currencies separated as a result of South Africa’s economy building in the 1920s. Nyamunda and Mseba tell the story of the struggles of African money users in engaging with colonial currency.

中南部非洲的货币，1890 年至 1931 年：非洲人、英镑和殖民地经济建设

在中南部非洲，英国矿业公司以一种自信和胁迫的方式影响殖民货币化。在新兴的定居国家中，非洲货币使用者被迫适应殖民货币来支付税收和交易。然而他们常常发现很难获得殖民地货币。该地区的公司统治最初与南非经济密切相关，但由于 20 年代南非经济建设，货币出现分离。尼亚蒙达和姆塞巴讲述了非洲货币使用者在处理殖民货币方面的挣扎故事。
