Krugerrand proof
Krugerrand proof coins are minted to have an additional numismatic value- or a value for collectors on top of the gold value. 1oz Krugerrand proof coins have a limited mintage, or number of coins produced. The Krugerrand proof coins also have quite a bit of special handling. The Rand Refinery specially polishes the blanks. Then the press operator at the mint hand loads the blanks, which are then double stamped to produce the highest quality impression on the coin. They also have special features to set them apart- for example a frosted finish, as well as more reeds on the edge of the coin. Gold bullion Krugerrand proofs sets will also usually come with a numbered certificate of authenticity. All of these factors add up to scarcity, and scarcity leads to a higher Krugerrand price.
