First introduced in 1967, the Krugerrand became the trailblazer for modern gold bullion coins by offering a piece that was privately ownable and measured by gold content rather than currency value. This made the Krugerrand especially notable during an era when personal gold ownership was restricted globally. Right now, 2000 1/4 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 2000 1/4 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coin arrives in a protective plastic flip. Fractional-ounce Krugerrands, such as this one, first appeared in 1980, expanding the series beyond the original 1 oz format. Each coin consists of 22-karat gold, composed of 91.67% pure gold and 8.33% copper, giving it a distinct reddish hue and added durability.
Fractional Gold Krugerrands allowed more people to participate in gold investment at lower entry points, providing flexibility for investors and collectors alike. The fractional coins maintained the iconic design elements of the original one-ounce Krugerrand while expanding the coin’s appeal globally and helping maintain South Africa’s position in the international gold market despite mounting political pressure against the apartheid regime.
On the obverse of 2000 South African Gold Krugerrands, you’ll find the familiar image of Paul Kruger, created by artist Otto Schultz. His left-facing portrait is bordered by the words “SUID-AFRIKA” and “SOUTH AFRICA,” denoting the two primary languages in use when the Krugerrand first debuted.
The reverse side of the 2000 1/4 oz Gold Krugerrand Coin highlights Coert Steynberg’s depiction of a springbok antelope, poised mid-leap across the South African plains. Its fluid form and elegant horns make it a celebrated national emblem and a hallmark of the Krugerrand series.
