1/10 oz Gold Krugerrands

1/10 oz South African Gold Krugerrands

The South African Gold Krugerrand is arguably the most well-known gold bullion coin in the world. Introduced in 1967, this coin debuted at a time when private gold ownership was reemerging around the world as an option for millions. The Gold Krugerrand was developed by the Rand Refinery and South African Mint as both a vehicle for private gold ownership, and as a means of promoting South African gold reserves to the world.

Introduction of the 1/10 oz Gold Krugerrand

South African Gold Krugerrands may have debuted in 1967, but the series was originally available only as a 1 oz gold collection. It was not until 1980, when the Gold Krugerrand commanded some 90% of the gold market globally, that fractional-ounce gold coins were made available.
