The 2017 Silver Krugerrand coins are part of the 50th anniversary celebration of the Krugerrand’s introduction as a gold bullion coin in 1967. The Silver Krugerrands are available to those buying silver in bullion and proof, with the proof coins featuring extremely low mintage figures and a special marking on the reverse.
In this 3-Coin Set from Emporium Hamburg, you’ll receive three separate 2017 South African Krugerrand coins. The gold coins are both 1/10 oz Gold Krugerrands. One of the coins features a colorized finish on the Springbok antelope design. The other gold coin has a hologram-like finish applied only to the antelope.
The 2017 1 oz South African Silver Krugerrand included in this 3-coin set is a bullion coin with a gilded finish. A 24-karat layer of gold has been applied to the Springbok antelope on the reverse face of the coin.
Each of the 2017 South African Krugerrand 50th Anniversary 3-Coin Sets available here today ships inside of a black display box, that features a Certificate of Authenticity inside of the box. It is important to note, only the 2017 Silver Krugerrand in this set features the 50th Anniversary privy mark above the antelope on the reverse.
On the obverse of all South African Krugerrand Coins you’ll find the left-profile portrait of one of South Africa’s greatest political and military leaders. Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kruger, known better as Paul Kruger, led the Republic of South Africa against the British during Boer Wars and became third president of the free nation from 1883 to 1900.
The reverse of all 2017 South African Krugerrand Coins includes the image of the Springbok antelope. Both the antelope design and Kruger’s portrait on the modern Krugerrand coins were refined by Otto Schultz in 1984.
