The leap that began in 1967.
You are looking at the side with the springbok.
Gold for the hands of ordinary people.
In the late 1960s, around three quarters of the western world’s gold came from South Africa. The Chamber of Mines wanted ordinary people, too, to be able to own gold.
With the Krugerrand, a new kind of coin came into being for this purpose: exactly one ounce of fine gold, with no face value struck on it. Its value was meant to come directly from the gold it contains.
6,012,293
Krugerrand bullion coins were issued in 1978 alone, 187 tonnes of gold in all.
A leap through history
1886
Gold on the Witwatersrand
On the Witwatersrand, the ridge of white water, rich gold deposits are discovered. South Africa’s currency is also named after it: the rand.
1947
The springbok
The sculptor Coert Steynberg draws his springbok in 1946 and 1947. It first appears in 1947 on the 5-shilling coin marking the visit of the British royal family.
1967
The first Krugerrand
On 3 July, commissioned by the South African Reserve Bank and the Chamber of Mines, the South African Mint strikes the first Krugerrand.
1980
Smaller sizes
The half ounce, the quarter ounce and the tenth ounce are added so that smaller sums can also be invested in gold.
2017
Fifty years
For the anniversary, the first silver Krugerrand appears, along with the 1/20 and 1/50 ounce in gold. For these coins, the designers go back to the original wax models and designs.
The motif
The springbok and the president
- The springbok
- South Africa’s national animal in mid-leap. The springbok owes its name to its characteristic leaps. It was designed by the sculptor Coert Steynberg.
- The aloe
- The motif includes an Aloe claviflora, one of South Africa’s best-known aloes. It grows in the dry interior of the country, where the springbok is also at home.
- Fyngoud
- Below the springbok is the fine gold content, framed by FYNGOUD in Afrikaans and FINE GOLD in English. Fyngoud means fine gold.
- Paul Kruger
- The other side shows Paul Kruger in profile. In 1883 he became president of the South African Republic, also known as the Transvaal. The portrait was created by the die engraver Otto Schultz. According to the South African Mint, it goes back to the Kruger half-crown of 1892.
- The name
- Krugerrand combines the name Kruger with the rand, South Africa’s currency.
The alloy
Eleven parts gold, one part copper
The Krugerrand is made of 22-carat gold: eleven twelfths fine gold and one twelfth copper. The copper makes the coin harder and more resistant to scratches. It also gives the coin its warm, reddish sheen.
Every coin contains its full weight in fine gold, and the copper is added on top. That is why the one-ounce coin weighs 33.93 grams and yet contains exactly one ounce of fine gold.
Proof
Placed by hand
The proof finish has accompanied the Krugerrand since the very first year of issue: in 1967, 10,000 gold Krugerrands were made in this quality.
For the 2017 anniversary, the South African Mint described its process as follows: the coins are placed by hand and struck several times at lower pressure, so that every detail is transferred flawlessly.
Each coin is then packed by hand and protected in a capsule, so that it stays just as it left the press.
The same leap since 1967.
Only the year is new.
By its 50th anniversary in 2017, more than 60 million Krugerrands had been sold. The 2026 issue carries this story forward, in your hand and perhaps one day in the hand of someone you pass it on to.

The fascination of the Krugerrand in its finest form
Gold has fascinated mankind for thousands of years. The Krugerrand embodies this fascination like hardly any other coin. The South African Mint has been minting this masterpiece since 1967, with its design deliberately left unchanged. The obverse shows the dignified portrait of Paul Kruger, President of the South African Republic from 1883 to 1902. On the reverse, the Springbok – South Africa's proud national animal – leaps elegantly across the African savannah.
"The Krugerrand is not simply a coin – it is a symbol of permanence, value preservation and the timeless beauty of gold."
Proof quality – perfection in every detail
The Proof finish lifts this set to a completely new level. Each of the seven coins has been minted with the utmost care. The combination of mirror-like fields and velvety matte relief creates a breathtaking sense of depth. The leaping Springbok appears to spring right out of the coin. Paul Kruger's distinctive features look more lifelike than ever. This Proof quality is the gold standard among minting qualities.
A set of inestimable collector's value
What makes this set so special? The answer lies in its strict limitation. While standard Krugerrand mintings are produced in large quantities, only 50 examples of this prestige set exist in the entire world. This extreme scarcity, combined with the Krugerrand's unbroken popularity, creates ideal conditions for a considerable value appreciation potential.
Technical masterpiece and elegant presentation
The set comprises seven different denominations, which together reach an impressive fine weight of 121.89 grams. The fineness of 917/1000 corresponds to the traditional Krugerrand alloy. The small copper content gives the coins their characteristic, warm reddish-golden colour and also makes them more durable than pure gold.
- Each coin rests securely in its own coin capsule
- The elegant wooden case with black velvet lining offers perfect protection
- The embossed South African Mint logo adorns the lid
- The tiered presentation offers an impressive view of all seven coins
For the discerning collector
This prestige set is aimed at connoisseurs and enthusiasts seeking the extraordinary. It makes an excellent centrepiece for a Krugerrand collection or a cornerstone for a new collection. Formally, the Krugerrand is recognised as official legal tender in South Africa – a unique feature among bullion coins, as it carries no stamped face value. Instead, its value is set anew each day in relation to the current gold price.
Gold has served as a stable store of value for over 6,000 years and offers inflation hedging as well as crisis protection. Profits from the sale of gold are generally tax-free after a minimum holding period of one year – another advantage for collectors with a long-term outlook.
Secure one of only 50 available sets and become part of an exclusive community of collectors who know how to appreciate the extraordinary. This limited collector's coin in set form will be almost impossible to find in the future.
