Product Description 22K / 14K Gold 1967 1oz Krugerrand Coin Pendant A difficult find you won't want to pass up! This 22K gold 1967 1oz proof Kruggerand coin is set in a 14K yellow gold screwtop plain pendant. The coin is very rare, as it is a first year issue legal tender Kruggerand coin. It measures 1-13/16"L x 1-5/16"W and has a 8mm x 5mm bail. The obverse of this coin features Paul Kruger, the last president of the Republic of South Africa, facing to the left. He is encircled by the words "Suid-Afrika - South Africa." A springbok (a South African antelope) is featured prancing across the reverse, as designed by C.L. Steynberg. This side also lists the date of issue and the amount and purity of the gold. Interestingly, the Krugerrand coin does not carry a face value, as it is primarily minted for trading outside South Africa. Known as the "father of the Afrikaner nation", Paul Kruger was a firm believer in the destiny of the Afrikaner. It is said his strong faith and obedience to God characterized his life. He was elected president of the South African Republic in 1883. Kruger then proceeded to negotiate the "SAR" complete independence from Britain in 1884 at the London convention. Includes a "romance card".
