Hello, I'm an expert in numismatics and history, and I'd be happy to help you with your question about the Krugerrand.
The
Krugerrand is a South African gold coin, first minted in 1967 to help market South African gold to the international market. The coin is named after Paul Kruger, a figure in South African history who served as the President of the
Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek (Transvaal Republic) from 1883 to 1900.
On the obverse (front) side of the coin, there is a left-facing profile of
Paul Kruger. The reverse (back) side features the
Springbok, a species of antelope native to South Africa, and a single
Afrikaner (South African)
Afrikaner, which is a type of beech tree.
So, to answer your question,
Paul Kruger is depicted on the Krugerrand.
