Krugerrand (2025) - 1 Oz - Silver Investment Coin (delivery 10.5.2025)

The silver Krugerrand is a relatively new coin. While its counterpart, the gold Krugerrand, held a dominant position for many years before the introduction of the gold eagle, the silver Krugerrand debuted in 2017. As a result, South African Krugerrands have fewer collectors and less demand for graded variants. Premiums for silver Krugerrands tend to be slightly higher than for general silver rounds, but lower than for limited mintage coins such as Libertads, Eagles and Kookaburras. Although relatively new as a silver coin, the Krugerrand comes from a world-renowned mint and is trusted to be produced with a precise and consistent level of quality.

Reverse

The coin bears the traditional depiction of the African gazelle in a leap, which is South Africa's national symbol. The motif is complemented by the inscription "KRUGERRAND FYNSILWER 1OZ FINE SILVER R1" and the year of issue.

Obverse

The coin shows a portrait of Paul Kruger, President of the Boer Transvaal (1883-1900), looking to the left and the inscription 'SUID AFRICA - SOUTH AFRICA'. This portrait was used on the South African Kruger Pond from 1892-1900, the forerunner of today's Krugerrands.
