Krugerrand gold coin

The South African Krugerrand uses a gold-copper alloy rather than the high-fineness gold of some other bullion coins. Its declared fine-gold content and gross weight are therefore different measurements.

Quick answer

Compare a 1 oz Krugerrand with a 1 oz Maple Leaf by fine-gold content. A higher gross weight does not automatically mean more gold. Fractional denominations and collector editions must be checked separately.

Calculate the price per gram

Divide the delivered price by declared fine-gold weight. Illustrative arithmetic, not a market quote: at 100 USD per gram of fine gold, 31.1035 g gives a hypothetical metal value of 3,110.35 USD. A real offer adds a premium and delivery. If the stated weight is gross weight, calculate fine-gold weight first.

Use troy ounces for bullion quotes and grams for metric bar comparisons. A price quoted in another currency must be converted at the same point in time before comparing premiums.
