South African Krugerrands
The South African Krugerrand was first produced in 1967. Since then it has become the most widely owned gold bullion coin in the world.
Each Krugerrand contains exactly 1 ounce of pure gold, added to which is a small amount of copper to provide durability. Thus the coins are of 22 karat gold.
The obverse depicts Paul Kruger, the last President of the original South African Republic from 1883 to 1902, and the reverse shows the national animal of South Africa - the springbok.
They were the first gold bullion coins produced in exact 1-ounce size, and sold for simply the spot gold price and a slight mark-up to cover manufacture and distribution. The huge supply of Krugerrands on the market makes it the least expensive choice in tradable gold bullion.
