SOUTH AFRICAN KRUGERRAND — JUNE 24, 2025

🪙 91.67% Purity · NOT GST/HST-exempt · RRSP/TFSA: No (below 99.5%)

C$4,759.27
Premium: C$204.94 (4.5%)

On Tuesday, June 24, 2025, the South African Krugerrand was priced at C$4,759.27 in Canadian Dollars. This included the spot price of C$4,554.33 plus a typical dealer premium of C$204.94 (4.5% over spot). Gold fell C$86.39 (-1.86%) from the previous session.

The Krugerrand was the world's first modern gold bullion coin, introduced by South Africa in 1967. Like the American Eagle, its 91.67% purity means it is NOT GST/HST-exempt in Canada and NOT eligible for registered accounts. However, its historical significance and worldwide recognition make it a sought-after collectible.

In 2025, gold in CAD traded between C$3,809.34 and C$6,192.19, with an annual average of C$4,811.55. This day's price was -5.3% below the yearly average and -26.5% from the year's high.

📊 Market Analysis — June 24, 2025

Gold demand in Canada has grown significantly over the past decade, driven by institutional investors, ETF flows, and retail buyers seeking portfolio diversification. The Royal Canadian Mint's Gold Maple Leaf remains one of the world's most widely traded bullion coins. Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) like SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) and iShares Gold Bullion ETF (CGL.TO) offer paper gold exposure. However, physical bullion provides tangible ownership without counterparty risk. Canadian investors should weigh convenience (ETFs) against security (physical) when building gold allocations.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

❓ What is the best size to buy for Canadian investors?

For most Canadian investors, 1oz gold bars or Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coins offer the best balance of premium and liquidity. Larger bars (10oz, kilo) have lower premiums per ounce but can be harder to liquidate in smaller amounts.

❓ Can I hold gold in my RRSP or TFSA?

Gold bars and coins with 99.5%+ purity from approved refiners can be held in a self-directed RRSP or TFSA through a qualified custodian. Storage is handled by approved vault facilities like those operated by the Royal Canadian Mint.

❓ Is this product GST/HST-exempt in Canada?

Under the Excise Tax Act, investment-grade gold bullion with 99.5% or higher purity is exempt from GST/HST across all Canadian provinces. Products below this threshold (e.g., American Eagle at 91.67% gold) are subject to full provincial sales tax.

💡 Canadian Gold Investor Guide

Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA): Buy a fixed CAD amount of gold each month — say C$500. This strategy reduces the impact of short-term volatility and removes the stress of timing the market. Over 10+ years, DCA has historically produced returns close to the annual average gold price.

Portfolio Allocation: Most Canadian financial planners recommend allocating 5–15% of a diversified portfolio to gold and precious metals. This allocation provides downside protection during equity bear markets while maintaining growth potential during inflationary periods.
