Paul Kruger has featured on countless forms of South African currency, including the modern Krugerrand. The portrayal of Kruger on South African coinage reflects both his historical importance and the complex legacy of Boer leadership in South Africa. The artistic representation of his profile, with his characteristic beard and stern expression, was carefully crafted to convey authority and dignity. Even today, vintage coins bearing Kruger’s image are highly sought after by collectors, who value them both for their historical significance and as artifacts of South African numismatic art.
The obverse of the 2025 South African Gold Krugerrand Coin features a left-profile portrait of Paul Kruger. Affectionately known as “Oom Paul,” or Uncle Paul in Afrikaans, Kruger was a beloved leader among his people.
On the reverse side of the 2025 1/10 oz Gold Krugerrands, the Springbok antelope is depicted in mid-pronk as it bounds across the savanna. This design, originally created in the 1930s, became a hallmark of the Krugerrand Series when it debuted in 1967.
