The Proof South African Krugerrand is an annual release in the gold coin series from the South African Mint and the Rand Refinery. The gold coins in the proof series come with a beautiful contrast between the frosted designs and mirrored fields. Today, you have the option to buy Proof South African Krugerrand 1/4 oz Gold Coins online from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
South African Krugerrand Gold Coins are legal tender in South Africa. However, none of the gold bullion coins in this series have an assigned denomination, making them one of the few bullion coin programs to hold legal tender status without an assigned denomination.
Obverse
On the obverse of Proof Krugerrand 1/4 oz Gold Coins, you will find an effigy of Paul Kruger. This design was created in the 1890s for the gold coins of the South African Pound and captures Kruger in left-profile relief. Inscriptions on this side read SUID AFRIKA and SOUTH AFRICA.
Reverse
The reverse field of the Proof South African Krugerrand Gold Coin comes with an image of a Springbok antelope. The design has featured on South African coins since at least the 1930s. This image captures the figure of the Springbok in right-profile relief as it pronks along the grasslands. Inscriptions on this side include KRUGERRAND, FYNGOUD, 1/4 OZ FINE GOLD, and the date mark.
History
Krugerrand coins were introduced in 1967 by the South African Mint and the Rand Refinery. The coins are named for the current fiat currency of South Africa, the Rand, and the former president featured on the obverse, Paul Kruger.
