The South African Krugerrand stands out worldwide as one of the most recognizable gold bullion coins.

Right now, 1980 1/10 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coins are available from BGASC.

Highlights:

  • Ships in a protective plastic flip!
  • First release of 1/10 oz Gold Krugerrands!
  • Contains 1/10 Troy oz of actual gold content.
  • Features Paul Kruger on the obverse.
  • Depicts a Springbok antelope on the reverse.

Each 1980 1/10 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coin arrives in a protective plastic flip. For over a decade, the Krugerrand was only minted as a 1 oz coin. In 1980, the South African Mint expanded the series to include fractional-ounce sizes, with this 1/10 oz coin marking the smallest option available.

Obverse

The obverse of the 1980 South African Gold Krugerrand features a left-profile portrait of Paul Kruger, an influential figure in South African history. This design was initially created for the South African Pound in the late 19th century.

Reverse

The reverse side of the 1980 1/10 oz Gold Krugerrand Coin showcases the Springbok antelope, a national symbol of South Africa. The Springbok is shown mid-leap in a characteristic, energetic pose, symbolizing the agility and spirit of this native animal.

History

During the 1980s, the Krugerrand faced restrictions due to economic sanctions imposed on South Africas apartheid government, which led to import bans in various Western countries. Despite these hurdles, the Krugerrands established popularity helped it maintain its position in the gold market. After the end of apartheid in the early 1990s, the Krugerrand returned to the global market, now competing with several other national gold bullion coins.
