The 1980 Gold Half Krugerrand is a fractional South African bullion coin struck in the traditional 22-carat gold-copper alloy. It carries Otto Schultz's Paul Kruger portrait on the obverse and Coert Steynberg's springbok reverse, matching the design language of the famous 1oz Krugerrand while offering 0.500oz of fine gold content. As the first year for the fractional half format, it is an especially useful date for collectors building a complete Krugerrand size run.
