The Krugerrand price is subject to the current market price of gold. The Krugerrand has no face value, which means that its value will depend on its bullion price. Thus, the Krugerrand price varies continuously. At first the Krugerand was developed in South Africa as a bullion coin. Since it was illegal for Americans to have gold bullions, they purchased Krugerrand coins. When it was first minted, the Krugerrand was sold at 5% over its bullion value, but now that has changed.
The Krugerrand price fluctuates constantly. Some people consider that buying this coin when the Krugerrand price is low and selling it when the price increase helps you make a profit, just like with high interest investments.
