The South African Krugerrand is well-known as the first gold bullion coin created specifically for investors and collectors. First released in 1967, the series was initially made up only of gold coins, designed to highlight South African gold in the global marketplace. In 2017, the collection grew with the introduction of its first silver coin. Today, you can find 2022 1 oz South African Silver Krugerrand Coins in flawless condition at BullionMax.

Krugerrand coins are instantly recognizable with the image of Paul Kruger. He was the President of the South African Republic (Transvaal) from 1883 until 1900, and he played a key role in Afrikaner identity and resistance to British influence. His leadership during the events leading up to the Second Boer War (1899-1902) made him a lasting symbol of Boer independence.

The obverse of the 2022 1 oz South African Silver Krugerrand Coin shows the detailed portrait of Paul Kruger. This design has been used on Krugerrand coins since the very beginning of the series in 1967 and was first created in the 1890s for South African Pound coins.

On the reverse, the coin presents the Springbok antelope, one of South Africa’s national symbols. The graceful animal has been a part of South African coin designs since the 1930s and is shown here crossing the open plains.
