The Collection

A land of poets and thinkers

Ence upon a time there was a country in the heart of Europe. Germany in the 19th century – shaped by virtues that run deeper than any ocean: Diligence, loyalty, honour and a sense of duty.

On 27 January 1859, a child was born in Berlin. Wilhelm II. Despite physical challenges, he grew to become one of the most formative figures of his era. Under his reign, "Made in Germany" became the world's greatest seal of quality.

The Telegram of 1896

1896. Far away in South Africa, a small people fights for its freedom. And prevails. The world watches. Kaiser Wilhelm II picks up his pen. A telegram travels around the world. From Berlin to Pretoria. From Emperor to President Paul Kruger.

"Few words. Yet they shake the world. A German Emperor stands up. Shows character. Shows greatness."

This telegram built a bridge between two nations. Between Germany and South Africa. A connection that has endured for 130 years.

A historic World Premiere

For the first time in the history of the Krugerrand, a German motif adorns the world's most famous gold coin. The Kaiser Wilhelm II Privy Mark is more than just a minting – it is an accolade.

This edition is the result of a years-long partnership of trust between the South African Mint and Kettner Edelmetalle.

As an official partner, Kettner Edelmetalle was honoured to offer this exclusive series on a worldwide exclusive basis. A recognition of our shared values: tradition, permanence and the highest quality.
