The story of the Krugerrand
Krugerrands were first issued by the South African mint in 1967 with a view to increasing awareness of South African gold. They were the first modern gold bullion coin and Krugerrands soon became the choice of discerning investors around the globe. By 1980 they accounted for 90% of the bullion coin market and it is estimated that, in the US alone, over 22 million were imported from 1974 to 1985. For 50 years, the Krugerrand has featured the springbok antelope, the national animal of the Republic of South Africa. The obverse shows an image of Paul Kruger the first president of South Africa and the 1 oz Krugerrand 2017 also has a unique privy mark to mark the coin's 50th anniversary.
