History
First minted on July 3, 1967, the South African Krugerrand is a gold coin that offers an easy entry for investors into the South African gold bullion market. It was produced by the South African Mind and Rand Refinery. The coin combines the South African unit of currency “rand” and the South African Republic’s former president Paul Kruger.
The Krugerrand is made of an alloy of copper and gold (22-karats) which makes it stronger than pure gold since pure gold is soft. It quickly became popular with gold investors that by the end of the 1970s, the term Krugerrands was synonymous with the term gold coins. The Krugerrand also accounted for the majority of the gold coin market by 1980, taking a 90% share. Later that year, three smaller coin denomination weights were introduced, the half-troy ounce, quarter ounce, and tenth-ounce gold.
As a result of the apartheid, South Africa faced a lot of economic sanctions. And one of such sanctions made the Krugerrand illegal in many Western countries between the 1970s and 1980s. In 1985, the United States, which is the largest market for coins, banned the importation of Krugerrands. When the apartheid ended in 1991, most economic sanctions against South Africa were lifted.
Design
Otto Schultz designed the obverse side of the Krugerrand. It is a profile of the former South African president Paul Kruger with the words “SUID-AFRIKA·SOUTH AFRICA” on top of the coin.
While Coert Steynberg designed the coin’s reverse side, the reverse side shows South Africa’s national animal, the springbok. The words “KRUGERRAND,” the year minted, and the gold weight in ounces are found on the reverse side.
