Johannes Paulus Kruger (1825-1904) was a prominent Boer leader against British rule and president of the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republic (1883-1902) which later became the Transvaal Colony under British rule and then the Transvaal Province of the Union of South Africa.
The coins of the 1892 issue were struck at the Royal Prussian Mint in Berlin, all others were struck at the South African Republic's Mint in Pretoria.
