The South African Silver Krugerrand coin series has a captivating history. The original Krugerrand, a gold coin, was introduced in 1967 by the South African Mint as a way to promote the country’s vast gold resources. However, it wasn’t until 2017 that the South African Mint expanded the series to include a silver version.

Details

The Silver Krugerrand carries the same iconic design as its gold counterpart, featuring the portrait of Paul Kruger, the former President of the South African Republic, on the obverse side. The reverse side displays the national animal of South Africa, the springbok antelope, along with the year of minting and the coin’s weight and purity.

The Silver Krugerrand quickly gained popularity among collectors and investors due to its association with the well-established Krugerrand brand. With a purity of .999, the Silver Krugerrand is known for its high-quality silver content and superb craftsmanship.

The South African Mint produces the Silver Krugerrand in various sizes, including 1 oz and 2 oz options, providing flexibility for collectors and investors with different preferences and budgets. Additionally, the Silver Krugerrand is legal tender in South Africa, adding to its appeal and recognition.
