South Africa – 2001 – 1\/2 Krugerrand – Springbok – Gold – Proof<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The 1\/2 Krugerrand Gold Proof 2001 is a high-quality collector’s edition from South Africa, struck in the typical Krugerrand alloy of 22-karat gold (Au 917\/1000). The proof coin impresses with its mirrored fields and high-contrast relief, giving the obverse and reverse a significantly more three-dimensional appearance than regular trade coins. <\/p>\n

The Krugerrand was created to make South African gold internationally tradable. At the same time, the proof editions have permanently established themselves as a separate collecting area, as they showcase the iconic design in a particularly sophisticated version and are also issued in significantly smaller quantities. <\/p>\n

Delivery:<\/strong> in capsule (as pictured).<\/p>\n
