According to goldprice.org (15 January 2026) gold has increased over 58% in just 12 months. And coincodex.com on the same date indicates that spot gold price will increase more than 20% by end June 2026, and 60% by end December 2026. These show now is THE time to buy before the prices increase - gold is a great investment. 

In 1989 the South Africa Mint (SAM) released another in the Krugerrand Proof series.  This coin is one ounce of 22 carat gold with a fineness of 0.917.  Being a Proof coin these are double struck for highest quality, and it has 220 reeds compared to the bullion version which only has 160 reeds.

The proof coins were released by SAM in red presentation cases.  In 1989 the coin was also encapsulated.

We have documentation showing the original purchase directly from SAM.  This coin has never been handled or used and is in truly remarkable, proof condition.

In 1989 only 4,083 of these coins were released.  This one ounce coin is identified as KM# 73.

Please research this unique coin for more photos of much better quality than I can take.  I will be very happy to present this coin by video if required.  Alternatively the coin is available at an agreed time for inspection in the Southern Highlands of NSW, or possibly at an agreed location in the Sydney metro area.
