Krugerrand 1987 GRC 1oz Gold Proof SAGCE PoV 97

This is 1 oz Krugerrand gold coin from 1987 in Proof/PP (Polished Plate) mint quality.

The unique feature about this gold coin is the GRC Mintmark, which proves that this coin was minted at the Gold Reef City (GRC) Mint.

In addition, 1987 was the first year of issue of the GRC coins and the mintage was low at 1650 pieces.

Another special feature and rarity is that this coin has been certified by the SAGCE with the high value 97 (Point of Value). It should be noted here that the GRC SAGCE ratings were very often made according to the old S100 classification, after 101 was the maximum value on the scale (and not 111). The certificate with the corresponding PoV in paper form is included in the offer.

Front:

The obverse of the Krugerrand gold coin depicts the world-famous portrait of Paul Kruger, after whom the series of Krugerrand coins was named. Paul Kruger, then President of South Africa (1883 to 1902), founded the mint from which the South African Mint originated. On the edge of the coin, the issuing country was stamped in English and Afrikaans.

Back:

The reverse of the Krugerrand gold coin depicts a springbok motif with a stylized South African steppe landscape in the background. Likewise, the fine weight of the coin, the fineness and the precious metal are depicted on the obverse of the coin.
