Rand Refinery
The Rand Refinery was the inventor of the standard 1oz investment gold coin. With the launch of the Krugerrand in 1967 it still produces the most well-known gold coin in the world today.
The Krugerrand is one of the best selling and most widely traded gold coins in the world. While the Krugerrand has been minted in large quantities for 50+ years, the 1969 edition had a limited mintage of just 20,000 coins.
The 1969 edition has a fineness of 916.67/1000 gold and a weight of 1 troy ounce.
