The South African Mint initially began the Krugerrand series in 1967, when the first gold Krugerrand was struck. The first silver Krugerrand was released in 2017. The South African silver Krugerrand is popular for many reasons, including its clean appearance, .999 purity and low premium over the silver spot price. https://sdbullion.com/2022-1-oz-south-african-silver-krugerrand-coin
