The new silver bullion Krugerrand went on sale this week and is expected to generate significant interest, says Prestige Bullion, a joint venture between Rand Refinery and the South African Mint. The silver Krugerrand is Prestige Bullion’s first foray into silver and its introduction makes this the first time in the Krugerrands’ 51-year history, that the coin is produced in a metal other than 22 ct gold in unlimited mintage.
