The 1/2 oz Gold South African Krugerrand is a fractional version of one of the most iconic gold bullion coins in the world. First introduced in 1980, the 1/2 oz version allows investors and collectors to own a smaller, more affordable piece of the famous Krugerrand series, which originally debuted in 1967.
Description:
The 1/2 oz Gold Krugerrand features the same classic design as the 1 oz version, with the following key elements:
Obverse:
Portrait of Paul Kruger, the 19th-century President of the South African Republic.
The words 'SUID-AFRIKA' and 'SOUTH AFRICA' appear around the portrait.
Reverse:
Depiction of a springbok antelope, the national animal of South Africa, gracefully leaping across the plains.
The coin’s weight, gold content (1/2 oz fine gold), and the year of minting are inscribed.
The word 'KRUGERRAND' appears prominently above the springbok.
