Kjless123 New Member United States 0 Posts	Posted 07/09/2019 9:11 pm Looking for any information on this coin. My grandfather left it to me. It's a proof he told me. Edited by Kjless123 07/09/2019 9:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4692 Posts	Posted 07/09/2019 10:02 pm Bullion coin from South Africa with 1/4 oz of gold. Does not appear to be a proof. Report this Post to the Staff
owatchman Pillar of the Community United States 1494 Posts	Posted 07/10/2019 12:43 am to CCF, Kjless123! I agree with jimbucks that it's the non-proof version. Here's a link with more info on your coin: https://www.NGCcoin.com/price-guide...duid-1528944 Report this Post to the Staff

Jadey Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 07/10/2019 08:43 am Those price guides are typically inflated, but yes, it would be worth more if it was a proof. The picture in the provided link is of a proof coin, so compare yours to the picture. Does your have reflective fields (background) with highly contrasted frosty devices (subjects/foreground)? It does not appear so in the picture you provided. Report this Post to the Staff
Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5405 Posts	Posted 07/10/2019 09:16 am A 1/4 ounce of gold nothing more . Definitely not a Proof Coin. Any legit dealer will pay 95 to 97 percent of gold value. Report this Post to the Staff

Standfast Valued Member United States 213 Posts	Posted 07/10/2019 5:41 pm Hi Kjless123, Welcome to CCF! It is MUCH better than my first coin! (A 1964 Kennedy half dollar) Report this Post to the Staff
txabs Valued Member Spain 125 Posts	Posted 07/11/2019 06:42 am Maybe your grandfather was trying to tell you 1980 is first year of this coin. As everyone said, it doesn't look like a proof coin. It's a nice gold 1/4 troy ounce, nothing else. Report this Post to the Staff
