First issued in 1967, the Krugerrand became the most traded one ounce gold coin in the 1980s.

Comprising 11\/12 24-carat gold and 1\/12 copper, the Krugerrand provides a strong 22-carat gold investment. It comes in four sizes, containing precisely 1oz, 1\/2oz, 1\/4oz, or 1\/10oz of pure gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1607\" data-end=\"1642\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1607\" data-end=\"1642\"\u003eGold as Hedge Against Inflation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1644\" data-end=\"1869\"\u003eFor centuries, people have relied on gold as a fundamental store of value.
