The 2017 South African Silver Krugerrand was the first-ever issue of the vaunted Krugerrand in a silver bullion option. As part of the 50^th anniversary of the Krugerrand, these first-ever Silver Krugerrands were produced in Premium Uncirculated condition and limited in availability to just one million in total. The unique Premium Uncirculated label points to the use of the highest-quality silver and extra caution in the production of each coin.

Paul Kruger is featured in left-profile relief on the obverse side of 2017 1 oz South African Silver Krugerrand Coins. The design was created in the 1890s for the predecessor republic to modern South Africa and used on South African Pound gold coins of the era. It was recently modernized in appearance in 1984.

The Springbok antelope is visible on the reverse face of all 2017 South African Silver Krugerrand Coins. The image of the Springbok on South African coins also predates the debut of the Krugerrand, having been used on South African gold coins as early as the 1920s. Following the popular reception of these coins, the South African Mint made the Silver Krugerrand an annual Brilliant Uncirculated coin release.
