South Africa – 1991 – Krugerrand – GRC Mintmark – 1/4 oz Gold – Proof – PCGS PR66 Deep Cameo – Top Pop

The 1991 Krugerrand 1/4 oz Gold Proof with the GRC mintmark is one of the particularly rare special editions within the Krugerrand series. The abbreviation GRC stands for the Gold Reef City Mint in Johannesburg and clearly distinguishes this issue from the regular Krugerrand of the same year.

1991 was also the last year for Krugerrand issues with the GRC mintmark. It is precisely this combination of a special mint, a clearly identifiable variant, and a very limited mintage that makes the issue interesting for specialized Krugerrand collectors.

The mintage of the 1991 GRC Krugerrand 1/4 oz Gold Proof is limited to only 426 pieces . Further years and variants can be found in our overview of Krugerrand mintage figures .

This piece has been certified by PCGS with PR66DCAM . The additional designation Deep Cameo indicates the pronounced contrast between the reflective fields and the matte motifs of the proof embossing.

The PCGS population is also particularly noteworthy. For PCGS No. 1020238 , only one coin is currently registered in PR66DCAM, with no higher-rated coin . This coin therefore has the status of PCGS Top Pop .

The obverse features a portrait of Paul Kruger . The reverse depicts the characteristic springbok and the GRC mintmark, which is crucial for this special edition. The coin is minted in the traditional 22-karat Krugerrand alloy and contains 1/4 troy ounce of gold .

The PCGS Holder is additionally equipped with NFC technology and allows verification of the certification with an NFC-enabled device.
