Gold Krugerrand

Introduced by the South African Mint in 1967, they quickly became a No.1  choice for investors and accounted for 90% of the global gold market in 1980 due to its success as a vehicle of wealth backed with rich history. Its demand had inspired other international mints to issue gold bullion of their own.

Named after First President Paul Kruger, a four term president of the old South African Republic, he features on the obverse side of the gold coin. The reverse image features the springbok, a national symbol of South Africa. 

Since 1980, Krugerrands have become available in three additional smaller sizes 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz and 1/2 oz.

The 2017 Krugerrand marks the 50th year of issuance from the South African Mint and is highly sought after.
