Krugerrands are South African gold coins first minted in 1967 to help market South African gold and provide a vehicle for private ownership of gold. They feature the likeness of Paul Kruger, South Africa’s first and only president, on the obverse, and a Springbok, one of South Africa’s national symbols, on the reverse. Krugerrands are prized among collectors for their gold content and are traded globally, available in several denominations to suit various needs.
