Buy 1 oz Gold Krugerrand | Raw | Random Year
The South African Gold Krugerrand is the coin that started the modern gold bullion market. First struck in 1967, it was the world’s first gold bullion coin available to the general public — and it remains one of the most widely traded, universally recognized, and historically significant gold coins in existence. This Raw, randomly dated 1 oz example gives you access to that legacy in original mint condition.
The Coin That Created the Bullion Market
Before the Krugerrand, there was no such thing as a mass-market gold bullion coin. When the South African Mint released it in 1967, it revolutionized the way ordinary investors could own and trade gold. The American Gold Eagle, the Canadian Maple Leaf, the Australian Kangaroo — all of them came later, all of them inspired in part by the Krugerrand’s blueprint. Owning a Krugerrand is owning a piece of that history.
