Sell South African Gold Coins

South Africa has a storied history when it comes to their gold coinage. Sometimes a symbol of national pride and sometimes widely rejected, either at home or abroad, these coins punctuate the timeline leading to global gold bullion adoption.

Today, millions of people worldwide hold the South African Krugerrand in their gold investment portfolios. The Krugerrand is the world's first dedicated gold bullion coin and, for many years, also the most popular. Folk hero Paul Kruger, whose bearded silhouette adorns the obverse, is therefore a familiar face to experienced gold investors everywhere.

The Krugerrand was introduced in 1967 as a gradual replacement for the 1 and 2 Rand gold coins, which were minted up to 2002 and have exited active production since. Before even the Gold Rand was the 1 Pond coin - intended to mirror the British Sovereign in quality and specification. The Gold Rand was minted under Kruger himself before, less than a decade later, ending production.
