An incredible 1 oz platinum Krugerrand, issued for the 50th anniversary of this influential coin.
What is a Krugerrand?
The name Krugerrand combines the official currency of South Africa - the Rand - with the name of influential Boer statesman, Paul Kruger.
A portrait of the late nineteenth century President of South Africa has appeared on the obverse of the Krugerrand since its first issue. This design, modelled by Otto Schultz during Kruger's lifetime, is paired with an image of the national animal of South Africa, the springbok, rendered by Coert Steynberg.
These gold coins were introduced in 1967, taking advantage of South African gold production and a relaxing of laws around private gold ownership. Today, the Krugerrand reports the largest sales by volume of any bullion coin by a significant margin.
2017 Anniversary Krugerrands
3 July 2017 marked fifty years since the first gold Krugerrands were struck. To celebrate, the South African Mint released a range of collectors pieces, including 'premium uncirculated' gold Krugerrands in various weights, the first silver versions and this remarkable and unique platinum edition.
These 50th anniversary Krugerrands - platinum 1 oz included - are distinguished by a special '50' privy seal, located near the springbok on the reverse.
A range of restruck 1967 Krugerrands were also offered, featuring the anniversary privy mark, as well as gold proof 2017 Krugerrands in limited numbers.
A Platinum Krugerrand
This coin has comparable dimensions to regular one ounce gold Krugerrands but is composed of 99.99% pure platinum. This is finer that other platinum bullion coins which tend to offer 99.95% platinum.
Only 2,017 platinum one ounce coins were issued and they haven’t been offered since.
These 31.107 gram coins were only offered in proof standard and the finish here is preserved by the original capsule. We’re offering this 2017 coin in its original packaging from the South African Mint without the numbered certificate of authenticity.
The Britannia Coin Company also stocks a range mixed-year gold bullion Krugerrands for investors, including:

We are always proud to show off our previous customers experiences with you and what they thought of our purchasing through with Britannia Coins.
Easy to use website. Fast and easy checkout. And items dispatch next business day with tracking. Only thing is coins sometimes are not up to snuff and have marks or spots Etc. BCC does quality checks but can be improved.

Buon giorno. Avete un negozio online ben fornito e di facile utilizzo. L'imballaggio del prodotto è stato ottimo. Ho solo un reclamo da fare ! Ho provato a chiamare presso op vostro negozio più volte senza avere nessuna risposta , ho usato anche il vostro contatto watzap ma anche in questo caso non ho avuto risposta. Vi ho contattato a luglio e agosto per sapere se erano previste le spese doganali,in fine ho acquistato senza sapere ....

Very easy to use website I think you enter the website and there's the latest "live metal prices" with an "Enter Search Item" bar at the top of the page. I like the fact it has the search feature as the home page. When you search for the item(s) it quickly shows the results, along with images of the coins or coin sets. I like that, too. The only downside with these types of businesses, is that you can't get to see a close up image of the coin and/or coin set you are buying. I feel that, because this company buys coins from collectors, etc. that they will have several items that are the same, but in varying degrees of quality and condition, and then, when your buying a 2nd hand item, it's going to be a case of pot luck on what you're going to get. And so, if it was possible, I'd love for BCC to get images of each item that you're going to buy. This is so you know what you're getting before you buy it. That said, every item I've bought from BCC has been of a very nice quality. Two of the coins were of a staggering high quality and the two sets I bought were much better than the average coin sets from eBay. I would say that BCC are the best company in the UK when it comes to used and brand new coins and coin sets. Not only that, the speed at which they get your order processed and delivered to your door is very very fast. The packaging is also on point and highly professional. Also, and one of the most important things, I really trust the Britannia Coin Company. Their prices are very fair and their items are clean and in good condition. They also have a good standing within the coin community.
