However, in 1985 Congress banned the importation of Krugerrands as a slap on the wrist of White-ruled South Africa, the source of Krugerrands. The ban created a huge void in the gold bullion coin market in the US. </i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>To fill the void, the US Mint introduced American Eagle Gold Bullion Coins. Not coincidentally, <span style="color: #ff0000"><b>the Mint opted to mimic the Krugerrands with its new Gold Eagles: 22-karat and four sizes with dimensions identical to the four Krugerrand sizes. </b></span>Further, Gold Eagles were the first, and still are, the only 22-karat gold coins turned out by the US Mint. It was great move as American Eagle Gold Coins have become immensely popular.&quot;</i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
