Random Year 1/2 oz South Africa Krugerrand .9167 Gold Coin
The Krugerrand is Africa’s most popular bullion coin and was first introduced in 1967. Since its inception more than forty six million units have been struck, one of which is this 1/2 ounce gold coin. It has been maintained in pristine condition and provides significant investment value. ## Coin Design Highlights This coin is comprised of gold with a 0.9167 purity. A small amount of copper is also present, which is common in most of the classical Krugerrands. This provides them with a distinct color and high durability which is not seen in gold coins of higher purity. Another thing which makes this coin distinct is the fact that it has no face value. Instead, its value is derived from the current price of gold in the market. The Krugerrand was released by the South African Mint with practical purposes in mind, to encourage the private ownership of gold by its citizens. The coin is named after Paul Kruger, who was the final president of the Republic of South Africa and whose portrait can be seen on the coin’s obverse side. ## Buy the 1/2 oz South Africa Krugerrand .9167 Gold Coin (Random Year) from LPM Now!
