In the early 1970’s, when it was illegal for United States Citizens to own gold coins, Krugerrand gold coins became the most successful bullion coins in history. At the time of their release, the Krugerrands were unique world gold coins. In those days, the concept of minting a series of gold coins containing exactly one ounce of gold, without a face value, was a first. The Krugerrands value changed daily and moved in accord with the daily gold price on world markets. One Full Ounce of Gold - Each Krugerrand gold coin contains an exact amount of pure gold, added to that is a small amount of copper to provide durability. Thus the coins are made of 22 carat alloy and their mass is a little more than the fine gold indicated on each coin. Historic Design - The obverse depicts Paul Kruger, President of the original South African Republic from 1883 to 1902, and the reverse shows a spectacular Springbok, the national animal of South Africa. A Lasting Symbol of Wealth - Today, the Gold Krugerrand gold coin still retains its status as an international symbol of wealth and prestige. As such, they are easily traded worldwide anytime you get ready to sell. These beautiful Krugerrand gold coins are highly prized both for their pure gold content as well as their unique designs. Minted at the famed Pretoria mint in South Africa, each one is in Brilliant Uncirculated, mint condition.. |
