The obverse of the 2025 1/4 oz Gold Krugerrand Coin depicts a left-profile portrait of Paul Kruger. This iconic relief was originally created in the 1890s for use on gold coins of the South African Pound denomination.
On the reverse of these 2025 South African Gold Krugerrands, you’ll find the image of the Springbok antelope. First created in the 1930s for South African coinage, this design has become a hallmark of the Krugerrand series and symbolizes the rich wildlife heritage of South Africa. The Springbok is also recognized as the official emblem of the modern Republic of South Africa.
The inclusion of the springbok on South African coins represents more than just wildlife imagery; it embodies the spirit of South Africa’s natural heritage and national identity. The animal’s representation on coins has evolved over the years, but it consistently portrays the springbok in its characteristic bounding pose, highlighting its agility and freedom of movement. This design choice has helped make South African coins instantly recognizable in the international numismatic community.
These 2025 1/4 oz South African Gold Krugerrand Coins are available for individual or bulk purchase. Coins bought individually arrive in protective plastic flips, while multiples of 50 are packaged in acrylic tubes. All coins are offered in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.
