Buy South African Krugerrand Gold & Silver Coins from Scottsdale Mint
Since its introduction in 1967, the South African Krugerrand has stood as one of the most recognized and widely traded bullion coins in the world. Struck by the South African Mint, the Krugerrand was the first modern gold bullion coin created for private ownership — setting the global standard for investment gold.
Today, the Krugerrand program includes both Gold and Silver coins, each embodying the same legacy of quality, authenticity, and timeless design. Scottsdale Mint offers the 1 oz Gold Krugerrand and 1 oz Silver Krugerrand, both verified for metal content, weight, and authenticity.
What Are Krugerrand Coins?
The Krugerrand was developed to promote South African gold globally and remains a trusted choice among investors and collectors. Each 1 oz coin is struck with precise weight and purity standards:
Gold Krugerrand: 1 troy ounce of 22-karat gold (.9167 fine), alloyed with copper for enhanced durability and its signature warm tone.
Silver Krugerrand: 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver, featuring the same iconic design and investment appeal.
The obverse displays a portrait of Paul Kruger, the former president of the South African Republic, while the reverse showcases the elegant springbok antelope — South Africa’s national symbol.
Unlike coins with fixed face values, Krugerrands derive their legal tender value from their intrinsic precious metal content, making them directly tied to global gold and silver prices.
