Highly sought after GOLD Investment ZAR Coin, Thomas Francois Burgers 1874 Pond, fine beard variety. Coin is in very fine to extra fine condition, this coin has not been mounted, hence the grading as closer to extra fine. Courier with full tracking for buyers account please. Thank you!

In 1874 President Burger purchased some gold for the purpose of introducing original coinage into the ZAR republic, he shipped it off to England to Mr J.J Pratt, the Republics Consul General. He received the first consignment of coins on 25 July 1874, after which the die broke. This batch of 695 gold coins became known as the fine beard Burgers Pond. The second batch of 142 coins was minted with a new die, resulting in differences between the first and second batches. The second batch of the Burgers Pond has a slight coarser beard, and other differences include the 8 of the date 1874 looks to have been double struck due to flaws in the second die. These two varieties of the 1874 Burgers Pond are very sought after, and are great investments regardless of the grade. Upon presentation of this coin to the Volksraad, he was criticised for using the republics money to produce coins with his face on. He was accused of being egotistical and that it was done out of vanity. Due to this adverse reaction form the Volksraad, further mintage was halted.
