Two years of issue, one brilliant duo: this "Time Travel Package" combines the Gold Krugerrand from the 2026 and 2024 minting years – each in the most refined of all minting types, the Proof. Both editions are strictly limited to a mintage of only 1,000 pieces per year of issue. It is precisely this limitation that makes the set a sought-after collector's coin and a small rarity for discerning collectors.

Why this set is so special

The Krugerrand is the oldest and best-selling bullion coin in the world – first minted in 1967 and a classic among gold coins to this day. In the Proof finish, the coin shows itself at its most beautiful: mirrored surfaces, finely matted motifs, a contrast that turns every half-ounce gold coin into a small work of art. Anyone who acquires both years of issue together secures two consecutive editions in one go – an appealing thought for any systematically built collection.

Gold is humanity's oldest currency – it has outlived all others and has been shining for millennia.

The low mintage speaks for itself: with a very low mintage of only 1,000 pieces per year of issue, a scarce supply meets a large, worldwide fan base. This is the breeding ground for noticeable appreciation potential – without this implying any promise regarding future prices.

Design, material and technical data

On the obverse, Paul Kruger looks out from the coin in profile – President of the South African Republic (term of office 1883–1900) and namesake of the series. The reverse shows the Springbok, South Africa's national animal, surrounded by the inscriptions "FYNGOUD 1/2 OZ FINE GOLD" and the split date. The name Krugerrand combines Paul Kruger with the Rand, South Africa's currency.

• Denomination: 1/2 oz each, two coins in total
• Fine weight: 31.1 g gold (2 × 15.55 g), gross weight 33.95 g
• Fineness: 916.67/1,000 (22 carat), remainder copper for the characteristic reddish-golden colouring and greater durability
• Diameter: 27.07 mm
• Condition: Proof (PP), new stock
• Delivery: each coin in a high-quality case

The copper content is no drawback – quite the opposite: it makes the Krugerrand more robust than many fine gold coins made of 999 gold. The fine weight itself remains unaffected – each coin contains exactly half an ounce of pure gold.

For collectors and for your wealth

For over 6,000 years, gold has been regarded as a proven store of value with intrinsic worth – a scarce commodity, tradeable worldwide and liquid at all times. As a physical precious metal, it serves as an inflation hedge and can be a solid building block for crisis protection in uncertain times. Small denominations in gold and silver are particularly popular here, as they remain flexible and divisible.

There is also a tax aspect: investment gold is exempt from VAT in Germany, and profits from its sale are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year. This set thus combines the appeal of a genuine collector's coin with the long-term advantages of physical gold coins. Whether as a gift, as the foundation of a collection, or to be passed down from generation to generation – anyone wishing to buy this time-travel combination secures two strictly limited Krugerrand editions in first-class Proof quality.
