Gold Krugerrands are produced by the Rand Refinery in South Africa. First issued in 1967, the Krugerrand became the most traded one ounce gold coin in the 1980s. The success of this gold bullion coin encouraged major mints all over the world to issue their own 1 oz gold coins.
Originally only one size was issued, which contained one full troy ounce (31.1035 grams) of fine gold. This was originally known as a Krugerrand, or Kruger, for short. From 1980, three other sizes were introduced, namely a half, quarter, and tenth ounce size. Because of these, the original Krugerrand is sometimes referred to as a "full" or "one ounce" Kruger or Krugerrand, although within the trade, the word Kruger or Krugerrand is understood to be the full sized original one ounce version.
They have legal tender status in South Africa, which allowed them to be imported into many, but not all, countries without import taxes, duty or VAT.
The obverse of the Krugerrand features a portrait of Paul Kruger. It was designed by Otto Schultz. The text reads in Afrikaans and English:
SUID-AFRIKA·SOUTH AFRICA
The reverse bears the iconic springbok antelope, the national animal of South Africa. The coin bears the inscription:
