The South African Krugerrand stands as one of the most famous gold bullion coins worldwide. Known for its status as the oldest modern bullion coin series, the Krugerrand has a history and reputation unmatched by others. Since its inception, the coin has maintained consistent obverse and reverse designs that honor South Africa’s heritage. Today, 1982 1/10 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
All 1982 1/10 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coin comes securely packaged in a plastic flip. Initially offered only as a 1 oz gold coin from 1967 to 1979, the South African Mint began producing fractional-ounce Krugerrands in 1980, adding 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz coins to the lineup.
South African Krugerrands have 22-karat gold composition of 91.67% gold content and 8.33% copper. This innovative composition of exactly one troy ounce of pure gold alloyed with copper, creates a more durable 22-karat coin that can withstand handling better than pure 24-karat gold coins. This distinctive orange-gold hue became a trademark of the Krugerrand and influenced the design of many subsequent national gold bullion coins.
The obverse of the 1982 South African Gold Krugerrand depicts a left-profile portrait of Paul Kruger, originally designed in the 1890s for the South African Pound.
The reverse of the 1982 1/10 oz Gold Krugerrand Coin showcases the Springbok antelope, a national symbol of South Africa, captured mid-stride in a behavior known as pronking, where the antelope leaps gracefully in the air.
