The history of the Krugerrand began in 1967 when South Africa introduced it as the world’s first modern gold bullion coin specifically designed for the private ownership of gold. During a time when private gold ownership was restricted in many countries, the Krugerrand was innovative in being denominated in ounces of gold rather than a specific currency value. Right now, 1994 1/4 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 1994 1/4 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coins available here comes with an individual plastic flip. The fractional-ounce Krugerrands were first issued in 1980, thirteen years after the series launched in 1967. All Krugerrands are 22-karat gold coins with a unique combination of 91.67% gold and 8.33% copper.
The Krugerrand is named, in part, for former President Paul Kruger. Paul Kruger’s impact on South Africa was profound and controversial, serving as the last president of the South African Republic (Transvaal) from 1883 to 1900. A staunch Afrikaner nationalist, Kruger fiercely resisted British imperialism, leading his people through the First and Second Boer Wars. His defiance against colonial powers made him a symbol of Afrikaner independence and resilience, though his policies regarding indigenous populations were deeply problematic by modern standards, reflecting the racial attitudes of his era.
The obverse design of the 1994 South African Gold Krugerrand features the profile of Paul Kruger, the former president of the South African Republic. His distinctive bearded portrait faces left and was created by sculptor Otto Schultz. The names “SUID-AFRIKA” and “SOUTH AFRICA” are inscribed around the edge in the two official languages of South Africa at the time of the coin’s introduction in 1967.
On the reverse of the 1994 1/4 oz Gold Krugerrand Coins, the design depicts a springbok antelope in mid-leap, designed by sculptor Coert Steynberg. The springbok is centered on the reverse side, shown in graceful motion with its distinctive curved horns visible.
