South African 1oz Silver Krugerrand

The 1 oz Silver Krugerrand is a modern extension of one of the most iconic bullion coin series in the world. Originally introduced in gold in 1967, the Krugerrand became synonymous with global bullion investment and South African heritage. In 2017, the South African Mint launched the silver version to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the series, offering collectors and enthusiasts a new way to enjoy this legendary design. Struck in .999 fine silver, each coin contains a full troy ounce of pure silver and features the same classic motifs that made the Krugerrand famous. Combining historical significance, exceptional craftsmanship, and legal tender status, the Silver Krugerrand stands as a symbol of quality and tradition in the bullion market.

Key Features:

  • Purity: Each Silver Krugerrand is struck in .999 fine silver, ensuring superior quality and global recognition. This purity standard makes it a trusted choice among collectors and bullion buyers.

  • Design: The obverse features the portrait of Paul Kruger, the former President of the South African Republic, surrounded by inscriptions in Afrikaans and English. The reverse displays the iconic springbok antelope, a national symbol of South Africa, along with weight and year of issue. The intricate detailing and frosted finish highlight the coin’s artistry and authenticity.

  • Denomination: The Silver Krugerrand carries a face value of 1 Rand, making it legal tender in South Africa. While its intrinsic silver value far exceeds its nominal denomination, this official status adds credibility and recognition.

  • Collectability: The Silver Krugerrand is highly sought after for its connection to the historic gold series, its elegant design, and its status as a relatively new addition to the bullion market. Its combination of tradition and modern minting makes it a standout choice for collectors.

The 1 oz Silver Krugerrand blends historic design with modern purity, offering collectors a timeless piece that represents South Africa’s heritage and global prominence in the bullion market.
