Krugerrand 1/2 ounce gold – an investment in the royal metal!

The Gold Krugerrand is the most famous bullion coin in the world. Produced by the South African National Mint, the coin is made of an alloy with a fineness of 916.6, which makes it exceptionally scratch-resistant. The Krugerrand is also distinguished by its liquidity, allowing for immediate resale regardless of market conditions.

The coin's manufacturer,Rand Refinery, is the world's largest single complex for the production and processing of precious metals. Since 1920, it has been involved in the purification, smelting, and recovery of precious metals. It manufactures products for investment, industry, and trade, as well as luxury goods.

Learn about the history of the Krugerrand 1/2 ounce gold bullion coin

With its vast reserves of precious metals, the South African Chamber of Mines came up with the idea of creating the world's first gold investment coin. The Krugerrand has been in continuous production since 1967. The coin's name comes from the surname "Kruger" and the word "rand," which is the name of South Africa's currency.

The Krugerrand has legal tender status in South Africa, which allows it to be imported into many countries without paying tax. Initially, the coin was produced in one size, containing one ounce of gold. In 1980, versions containing half, quarter, and tenth ounces of pure gold were introduced.

What does a 1/2 ounce Krugerrand gold coin look like?

The Krugerrand was designed by South African sculptor Coert Steynberg. The obverse of the coin features a portrait of Transvaal President Paul Kruger. The edge bears the words "South Africa" in Afrikaans and English.

On the reverse side of the coin, we see a springbok antelope, one of South Africa's national symbols. On either side of it are numbers representing the year of minting. Below, the inscription "Fyngoud 1/2 oz fine gold" indicates the pure gold content. Thanks to the addition of copper, the coin is more resistant to scratches and has an unusual color.

Due to the long-standing, unflagging trend for purchasing this unique coin, Mennica Skarbowa offers it in its product range.
