South Africa – 1987 – Krugerrand – GRC – Proof Set – 4 Gold Coins – Original Case

This original 1987 Krugerrand GRC Proof Set unites the classic Krugerrand weight series in a high-quality collector’s collection. It includes four proof coins: 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz, and 1/10 oz , resulting in a total fine gold content of 1.85 oz . This set is clearly identifiable as a GRC issue , as the coins bear the GRC Mint Mark , indicating their origin from the GRC Mint (Gold Reef City) .

The Krugerrand is considered an icon of modern gold coinage. The reverse of each coin features the springbok , while the obverse bears the portrait of Paul Kruger . Especially in proof quality, the contrast between the mirrored fields and the finely matte relief areas is particularly striking, making this set not only a gold classic but also a sophisticated collector’s item. Furthermore, the original red presentation case with the SAM monogram on the lid completes the classic, collector-oriented presentation.
