<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2148576, member: 26302&quot;]The MA thaler is a fair point, but Venetian coins as well as Dutch had been also restruck for many years. My point was not that the Krugerrand was the first bullion coin. The key advancement the krugerrand made was to weigh exactly one ounce. This makes it easy to always know the melt value of the piece, and more closely ties a coin with a PM investment. That was the key advance they should get credit for. How many bullion coins issued today that are not one ounce or fractions of an ounce? Before the krugerrand, none of them were. They were like .1819 ounces, or really odd numbers like that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
