South Africa – 1960 – 1 oz – Chamber of Mines – Gold Jubilee 1910 1960 – Gold – PCGS MS67 – Top Pop

This South African edition from 1960 was published to commemorate the Goue Jubilee 1910-1960 and is therefore a significant historical document of the Union of South Africa era. In this way, the edition combines national symbolism with the economic-historical significance of mining, while at the same time it impresses as a collector-oriented gold edition with a clear visual language.

The front side shows a pair of springboks with the anniversary reference 1910-1960 and the Afrikaans legend about the Union of South Africa. On the reverse side is a prominent mine headframe , and the issuing institution is named in Afrikaans. Additionally, 1 OZ GOUD and FYNHEID 996 are directly indicated in the stamp, thus clearly documenting the weight class and fineness.

The specimen offered here has been graded MS67 by PCGS , placing it among the top specimens in this classification. Top Pop – Population 2 underscores its rarity in this high state of preservation and thus significantly increases its relevance for discerning South African collectors.
