Gold Quarter Ounce(1/4 oz)

The 1/4 oz Gold Krugerrand is a well-known fractional bullion coin that combines affordability with the global recognition of the Krugerrand series. Introduced in 1980 alongside other fractional sizes, the quarter-ounce Krugerrand provides a convenient way to invest in gold while maintaining the classic design and trusted quality of South Africa’s most famous coin.

The coin is minted in 22-carat gold (91.67% purity), using a copper alloy to strengthen the coin and provide its characteristic reddish-gold appearance.

Each 1/4 oz Krugerrand contains 7.776 g of pure gold and has a total weight of 8.482 g. The coin has a diameter of approximately 22.06 mm and a thickness of about 1.888 mm.

The obverse depicts Paul Kruger, while the reverse features the famous springbok antelope designed by Coert Steynberg. The design has remained largely unchanged since the first Krugerrand was issued in 1967.

The 1/4 oz Krugerrand is especially attractive for investors seeking smaller gold units that are easy to trade or accumulate over time. Its lower gold content compared to the full ounce coin allows for greater flexibility when building a precious metals portfolio.
