Information
Gold Krugerrand 1/4 troy ounce
The gold Krugerrand 1/4 troy ounce coin is an iconic investment coin, produced by the renowned South African Mint in South Africa. The coin has a diameter of 22.06 mm and a thickness of 1.88 mm, and offers a unique combination of quality and durability.
The gold Krugerrand is composed of 91.67% pure gold (7.77 grams) and 8.33% copper (0.72 grams), resulting in a total weight of 8.49 grams. Despite the added copper, the coin contains exactly 1/4 troy ounce of pure gold (7.77 grams). The copper makes the coin more robust and less susceptible to wear, making it an excellent choice for both investors and collectors. The coin's characteristic reddish-orange glow is due to the copper content and makes the Krugerrand instantly recognizable.
Origin of the Krugerrand
The name "Krugerrand" is a combination of Paul Kruger, former president of South Africa, and the national currency, the Rand. First issued in 1967, the Krugerrand is the oldest gold bullion coin in the world. Its long history and global popularity make the Krugerrand one of the most recognizable and trusted gold coins.
Design of the 1/4 troy ounce gold Krugerrand
Obverse
The obverse of the 1/4 troy ounce gold Krugerrand features an elegant design of a springbok, the national animal of South Africa. The springbok gracefully walks across a desert plant, the Aloe claviflora, which is characteristic of the South African landscape. This beautiful detail emphasizes the coin's connection to its origins. In addition, the name of the mint, KRUGERRAND, and the year are engraved on the obverse. At the bottom of the coin, the weight of the gold (1/4 OZ) is shown, together with a guarantee of the gold quality in both Afrikaans (FYNGOUD) and English (FINE GOLD).
Reverse
The reverse shows an iconic portrait of Paul Kruger, the fifth President of the Republic of South Africa (1883-1900). Paul Kruger, one of the most prominent figures during the Boer Wars, is depicted with a powerful and historical presence. The portrait, designed by Otto Schultz, reflects his important role in South African history. The names of the country of origin are engraved around the image in both English (SOUTH AFRICA) and Afrikaans (SUID-AFRICA), emphasising the country's bilingual heritage.
Investing in the gold Krugerrand
The gold Krugerrand differs from other well-known investment coins in that it does not have a face value on the coin. Instead, the value of the Krugerrand is determined by the amount of pure gold it contains. This unique feature offers an important guarantee: the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) will buy back every Krugerrand at the current gold price, so the coin always retains its intrinsic value.
The 1/4 troy ounce gold Krugerrand coin, along with other fractional sizes, was introduced in 1980 by The South African Mint. The aim was to make investing in gold more accessible and common. The smaller sizes allowed more people to benefit from the advantages of physical gold, without having to invest large amounts.
Thanks to this combination of flexibility, intrinsic value and the global recognition of the Krugerrand, the 1/4 troy ounce gold Krugerrand remains an excellent choice for both novice and experienced investors.

Less information
Een B-label staat voor producten die wereldwijd goed verhandelbaar zijn en afkomstig zijn van erkende munthuizen of raffinaderijen. De prijs per gram of de spread ligt echter doorgaans iets hoger dan bij A-label producten. Daarmee zijn ze nog steeds geschikt als belegging, maar minder optimaal voor wie puur kijkt naar kostenefficiëntie.
C-label

Less information
Products with a C-rating are primarily valued for their collectible characteristics. This may include limited editions, unique designs, or historical significance. As a result, their price is often less closely tied to the underlying metal value. These products are typically chosen by collectors rather than investors focused on efficiency.
