Today, the Gold Krugerrand is not only regarded as South Africa’s most iconic piece of currency, but also as one of the precious metal industry’s most sought after collectibles.

The artwork featured on the 2015 1 oz Gold Krugerrand offers an inspiring homage to the heritage and culture of South Africa. Prominently displayed on the front of the coin is its namesake, Paul Kruger. This historical figure played a vital role in the Second Boer War as a leader of the resistance. From his trademark whiskers to his poised countenance, viewers are certain to appreciate the detailed rendering of this national hero. Also engraved unto the front of the coin is the country’s name both in English and native South African dialect.

The reverse side of the coin provides viewers with a glimpse of South Africa’s famed Springbok antelope as it scampers across the tall grass of its African savanna home. Wildlife enthusiasts will undoubtedly find themselves impressed by the dynamic portrayal of this lithe creature. Intricate details, such as the angles of the antelope’s legs, help evoke a sense of movement that makes it appear as though the antelope were ready to leap off the coin’s surface. Printed along the edge of the coin are its purity, weight and series title. Flanking both sides of the antelope is the coin’s mint age year of 2015.
