2018 1 oz Proof Silver Krugerrand

Description

First introduced in 1967 as a gold-only issue, the Krugerrand stands as the world’s original and most iconic bullion coin. To mark its 50th anniversary, the South African Mint broke half a century of tradition by launching the first-ever Silver Krugerrand, quickly establishing it as a cornerstone of modern precious metals collecting.

This 2018 issue represents the first official ongoing year of production for the Silver Krugerrand in a mirror-like proof finish. The obverse features the classic profile of former president Paul Kruger, while the reverse displays the iconic springbok antelope galloping across the South African veld. Struck in one troy ounce of fine silver with a mirror-finish proof strike, it holds legal tender status at 1 Rand—a key distinction from its undenominated gold counterpart.

Combining unmatched global prestige with high-end proof craftsmanship, this coin offers collectors a premium fine silver edition of the world’s premier coin design from the same mint that crafts the renowned Big Five series.
