Pièce d'investissement mise sur le marché en 1967 par le gouvernement de l'Afrique du Sud dans le but de stimuler la vente de son or. 3, record 1, French, - Krugerrand
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'avance du Krugerrand tient à plusieurs facteurs dont le principal est sans doute le fait qu'il possède plusieurs années d'avance sur la Feuille d'Érable. La pièce de monnaie sud-africaine a été lancée en 1967 alors que la Feuille d'Érable a vu le jour en 1979 seulement. 2, record 1, French, - Krugerrand
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Le Krugerrand n'a pas de rapport direct avec l'unité monétaire de l'Afrique du Sud, le rand.... Cette monnaie contient une once troy d'or fin (titré à une pureté de 917) en alliage cuivreux; elle compte diverses fractions : 1/2, 1/4, 1/10. 3, record 1, French, - Krugerrand
