Gold Krugerrands are 22-karat gold coins available from the South African Mint and the Rand Refinery as of 1967. Originally, the coins were offered only in 1 oz gold, with fractional-ounce coins not offered until 1980. When the fractional-ounce coins debuted, the mint offered 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz gold.
All of the coins currently available in the South African Gold Krugerrand Series, both BU and Proof alike, have the same 22-karat gold content. The South African Mint and Rand Refinery use a metallic alloy of 91.67% gold and 8.33% copper.
Paul Kruger is featured in the obverse design of 1/4 oz Proof Gold Krugerrand Coins. The former President of the South African Republic is shown here in left-profile relief. He is held in such high regard that his last name was combined with the modern fiat currency of South Africa, the Rand, to form the name of the coins in this series.
A Springbok antelope is found in the reverse field of Proof South African Gold Krugerrand Coins. The national symbol of the Republic of South Africa, the creature is shown here in right-profile relief pronking along the grasslands of the southern African continent.
These 1/4 oz Proof South African Gold Krugerrand Coins are available in protective acrylic capsules. Please remember that we do not guarantee a specific date mark in this listing and that it is possible to receive matching dates when you buy multiples.
