Beginning in 2020, The South African Mint started producing a 2 oz version of their proof silver Krugerrand coin. A hit with collectors, this option is back now for its 4th year of issue. Unlike the gold version of the Krugerrand, these coins have a monetary face value in addition to their metal value. But the coins design itself features the same iconic images of Paul Kruger and a Springbok antelope that help define this legendary program. Right now, you can buy 2023 Proof South African Krugerrand 2 oz Silver Coins online from Provident Metals.
Coin Highlights:
When you order 2023 Proof South African Krugerrand 2 oz Coins in this online Provident Metals listing, they will arrive to you in a display box with a Certificate of Authenticity. Struck in .999 fine silver at The South African Mint, these coins hold legal tender status in South Africa. They are also proof quality, which means their fields have a mirror-like finish and their raised devices have a frosty appearance.
Obverse
On the obverse side of 2023 Proof South African Krugerrand Silver Coins, youll find a portrait of Paul Kruger. This iconic soldier and statesman is shown facing left in a design by Otto Schultz. It has appeared on all Krugerrand coins since the program debuted back in 1967. You will also find inscriptions across rim that read SUID AFRIKA, SOUTH AFRICA.
Reverse
The reverse face of 2023 South African Krugerrand 2 oz Silver Coins contains a Springbok antelope design. This magnificent creature is considered the national animal of South Africa and has been a staple of the Krugerrand reverse design since the series began. However, the design itself dates back to 1947, when it was created by Coert Steynberg for a South African five shillings piece. Reverse inscriptions read KRUGERRAND, 2023, FYNSILWER, 2 OZ, FINE SILVER, R2.
History
The silver edition of the Krugerrand first arrived in 2017 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the original gold Krugerrand coin. The South African Mint issued Premium Uncirculated, Proof, and Gilded versions of the coin. In 2018, the first BU silver Krugerrand arrived, followed by the 2 oz Proof debut in 2020.
