Never boring.

 

the 75 Krugerrand is a very common date at 4,803,925 in third place
to the 78,79, but I love Krugerrands have many common dates and the hard to get.
what ever the year, Good Choice

 

This is my rarest Krugerrand’s this 1991 only has a population of 42.334 got real
lucky and picked it up at my LCS this
is also my youngest sons birth year.

 

Does that particular one (1991) demand a little more being low pop compared to other krugs

 

Great question, this all depends on who is selling, my LCS does not charge a premium for any years, kind of surprising if you ask me, but that fact is they
have allot of the 75, 78, 79 coins which are very common and get at current bullion prices but was really lucky to get the 91 at just spot, the 1989 cost me $400 over
spot so not the best deal, and that population is in the 300,000 range ! but where
are they ? that is actually fairly low for Krugerrands actually, but moving thru 91-2006 the populations are stupidly low many years are under 20,000 , things improve
a bit 2007 -2013 but they stopped keeping records after that not sure why ?

 

1st full year of availability in the U.S. once Pres. Ford OK'd gold ownership by individuals by rescinding the notorious FDR EO.

 

The Krugerrand got blacklisted during apartheid; after that, new coins gained in popularity: American Eagle, Chinese Panda, Maple Leaf, Buffalo, Philharmonic, etc.

Premium for Krugerrand is smallest among bullion coins listed in BARRON'S for decades. Krugerrand @ 4.5% premium.....Maple Leaf, Mexican Peso, and U.S. Eagles @ 7.0% premiums.....Austria Crown and Philharmonic @ 3% and 5%, respectively.

Peso must be older coin over 1 ounce....not sure why they don't switch to Libertad.

 

At my LCS no, they charge me the same
what ever year, but they have allot of
commons to which you wouldn’t pay a a premium on anyway but bullion provider like APMEX you do pay more for the lower mintages.

 

You will pay the premium on the front end or the back, regardless of what coin
you choose, my Krugerrand’s are my life
event coins and now, trying to collect
every year ! it’s not so much the cost
but the availability of certain years 1991-
2007 especially allot of those are under
25,000 with world wide distribution
that’s not to many.

I already have allot of AGE 1,2 raw and
graded also buffalos and libertads, now
there’s a coin with a huge premium ! if
you took that in to a coin store I doubt
if you would even come close to getting
That premium back around $2,300 out
the door at APMEX as of this writing.

Also not a big fan of the maple leaf a
beautiful coin but they are heavily discounted for scratches or dings.

 

99.00 FV of 90% QUARTERS AND DIMES FOR 1 OZ GOLD BUFFALO AND 100.00FV for an AGE COMING ANOTHER 1 OUNCER

 

BOTH SIDE DUMMY

 

Another Chinese gold 1/10th to add to my small collection!

 

Auspicious the good fortune coin, I also have this one, wish they made a 1 OZ
version.

 

Yep, got the idea from you!

 

Can’t resist the fractional gold at my lcs. The 1/10th ounce krugerrand for $20 over melt and the dos peso for $1 over melt.

 

Love those Krugers in any size

 

Come on everyone like them so.Africa coins
