<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aidan Work, post: 90132, member: 1824&quot;]It must be remembered that South Africa remained on the gold standard until 1965,when the Rand was allowed to float.After the issue of the Krugerrand began in 1967,it was actually illegal until fairly recently for South Africans to own the Krugerrand.The import</p><p>of the Krugerrand into Great Britain was illegal because of its association with the apartheid regime.Fortunately,I have never been put off by the Krugerrand&#039;s negative associations,as the Krugerrand is still being struck today,as have the fractions been since 1980.I have never been able to afford the full Krugerrand,but I do have 2 of the 1/10 Krugerrands - 1984 &amp; 1990.They are very nice coins,&amp; are a valid part of anyone&#039;s British</p><p>Commonwealth coin collection,as South Africa is now fully recognised as a full member of the British Commonwealth.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aidan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
