Krugerrand 1/4 oz Gold 2025
Gold coins with the image of the springbok antelope have been minted continuously since 1967. Initially, they were produced only in one ounce weights, however, since 1980, Krugerrands of 1/2, 1/4 and 1/10 ounce gold have been introduced. Interestingly, the name of the gold bullion coin was created by combining the words "Kruger" and "rand" - which is the name of the currency in South Africa.
Krugerrands are produced by the South African Rand Refinery mint. It is a fully fledged means of payment, guaranteed by the South African government as to the legality, purity of the bullion and the origin of the metal. It is interesting to note that although Krugerrands are full-fledged legal tender, they have no monetary value. This means that the South African Reserve Bank is obliged to repurchase the coins at the prevailing gold price.
The obverse is decorated with a portrait of the President, Paul Kruger, with the words "SUID-AFRICA" AND "SOUTH AFRICA" above it.
Rewers depict a springbok antelope, the symbol of South Africa. On either side of it are numbers representing the year of minting, with the words 'Fyngoud 1/4oz fine gold' underneath, indicating the pure gold content.
