The South African Krugerrand Gold Coins is one of the world’s oldest and most recognizable gold bullion coins. Before other governments around the world decided to mint their own bullion coins, the 1 oz South African gold krugerrand coin was the #1 choice for investors across the world.

The Krugerrand is Africa’s premium bullion coin and was first released in 1967. While there are other coins minted on behalf of the African government throughout the continent, Krugerrand is one of the few gold coins to be produced within an African country. Kruger is a combination of the words “Kruger” and “rand,” which refers to a South African currency. It doesn’t get any purer than a genuine Krugerrand in terms of purity.

In the 1960s South Africa Chamber of Mines introduced the Krugerrand to encourage physical gold as an investment option for the “man on street”. In 1967, the Krugerrand was made legal tender and contained one troy ounce fine gold with copper. To make the coin more durable and long-lasting, it is made of a copper-gold alloy. The unique feature of this gold coin was its lack of denomination. Its face value was linked to the daily gold price.
