    Something new always has a premium but like everything else it will come down eventually

    Stay away from silver kruggerands or silver anything for that matter if you are trying to "invest" as the title says. If you like it then sure buy it but don't expect it to be a good investment.

    Wasn't it the silver snake a while back, then the silver swan recently, now its the silver krug. What will the next non sense silver gimmick be ? Starting to sound an awful lot like baseball cards always a stupid gimmick to generate excitement for a week or two. Gold doesn't need gimmicks.

    Baseball cards are no fad, and will always be around but like anything else they
    do have there price fluctuations.

    I'm beginning to have some buyers remorse. I am thinking we overpaid for the proof silver Krugerrands we bought. Over $80 each is a bit steep for one ounce of silver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Just curious. The 2017 silver Krugerrand was minted for the 50th anniversary of the gold Krugerrand. Is this a onetime deal? Or will the silver Krugerrand continue to be minted on regular annual basis?

    Thank you oh so very much for confirming. If only we'd bought the PU version at $60ish each we'd be making a killing right now flipping them on ebay. As it stands now, paying $80.13 each for the proof version was the worst potential flip play we could have made, a quick look at sold listings verifies that.

    The Krugerrand is a classic, and, now that it's available in silver, I am tempted to buy one. However, if the silver Krugerrand is going to be minted on a regular basis, I'll wait until next year.

    I think that,s the million dollar question, however this years has the 50 Privy on it
    And i think there is a limited run of those.

    I have it on the highest authority that the 50th anniversary privy mark will be put on all Krugerrands from 2017 onward, because that is what the market demands.

    Well forgive me if that sounds a little retarded !! why would you call anything 50th
    Anniversary after that year has past ? it seems talk and actions like that would actually drive down the price :(
    Making something special and then marking it as such and then making a certain
    Quantity would seem the best way to go.
