Krugerrand coins are known worldwide as a symbol of the highest gold quality and timeless beauty. Since their introduction in 1967 by the South African Mint, they have become a coveted collector’s coin and a safe investment option.
The Krugerrand is distinguished by its unique design, which features South African President Paul Kruger on the obverse and the majestic springbok on the reverse. The fineness is 916.7. To make the coin more resistant to damage such as scratches, dents, and scuffs, copper is added to the pure gold content of one ounce (31.1 g). The copper content of approximately 9% gives the coin a reddish-gold hue.
The Krugerrand holds the largest market share among gold bullion coins. Numerous other bullion coins were developed based on its design. Anyone looking to invest in bullion coins should not overlook this absolute classic.
