Description

The 1981 Gold Quarter Krugerrand is a South African bullion coin struck in the traditional 22-carat gold-copper alloy and containing one quarter troy ounce of fine gold. It forms part of the Gold Krugerrand family, one of the most influential bullion coin programmes in the world. The obverse carries Otto Schultz's portrait of Paul Kruger, while the reverse shows Coert Steynberg's springbok antelope, the design pairing that has defined the Krugerrand since 1967. The copper alloy gives the coin its distinctive warm colour and provides added durability for handling and long-term storage. The 1981 date belongs to the early fractional Krugerrand period, when smaller gold sizes helped make the famous South African design accessible at lower price points than the 1oz coin.
