The South African Krugerrand is a well-known gold coin recognized for its role as a pioneer in the world of bullion. Introduced as the first modern bullion coin, it celebrates South Africa’s heritage while setting a high standard in gold investment. Right now, 1980 1/10 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coins are available from BullionMax.
Coin Highlights:
Each 1980 1/10 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coin is individually packaged in a plastic flip. Originally, the Krugerrand was only produced as a 1 oz coin for its first thirteen years. In 1980, the South African Mint expanded the series to include fractional-ounce coins, and this 1/10 oz version was introduced as the smallest option.
Throughout the 1980s, the Krugerrand faced challenges in the international market due to economic sanctions on South Africa, which included import bans in many Western countries. Despite these restrictions, its reputation as a trusted bullion coin kept it popular. After the end of apartheid in the 1990s, the Krugerrand was reintroduced globally, now sharing the market with other well-known gold coins.
The obverse of the 1980 South African Gold Krugerrand features a left-profile portrait of Paul Kruger, a former South African president. This design was originally crafted for the South African Pound during the 1890s.
On the reverse of the 1980 1/10 oz Gold Krugerrand Coin is an image of the Springbok antelope, a symbol of South Africa. The Springbok is shown in mid-leap, capturing its graceful, energetic movement.
