1980 South African 1 oz Gold Krugerrand Coin
1980 South African Krugerrand struck from 1 troy ounce of fine gold and housed in a protective slab. The obverse features a left-facing portrait of Paul Kruger, former president of the South African Republic, surrounded by the dual-language inscription "SUID-AFRIKA SOUTH AFRICA" in Afrikaans and English. The reverse illustrates a springbok antelope, a national symbol of South Africa, captured in motion above a textured terrain. The year "1980" appears split on either side of the figure, with "19" on the left and "80" on the right. Along the lower edge, the inscription "FYNGOUD 1 OZ FINE GOLD" identifies the coin's weight and gold content. Produced by the South African Mint, this coin played a key role in the global adoption of modern gold bullion coinage. Case: 2.25"L x 0.5"W x 3.25"H. Gold coin diameter: 32.8 mm.
