2017 South Africa 1 oz Platinum Krugerrand Proof

Sent Email APMEX BEFORE these Krugerand shipped to make sure two Platinum PROOF Krugerands packed securely, MY TWO PROOF Platinum Krugerand both rolling around OGP ..finger prints and coins outside plastic protective case....WHY....pay Premium and no one listened.... repeat loyal customer meant ......??

Received Platinum 1 oz. Kruger and proof ultra cameo, with thumb and forefinger prints clearly the result of being handled by APMEX. The coins were loose in the materials and out of their capsule evidencing they were handled and not returned to their sealed plastic containers. Less than professional could have lead to damage or loss, Not impressed.

This coin is what actually made me want to get into coin collecting this year. The one I received was stunning and flawless. It is quite a premium over spot.. but the exciting part is the mintage.. only 2017 made. It will certainly be very valuable as long as the mint doesn't make any more. The SA mint website claims "This is the first and only time a Krugerrand is issued in platinum" and numerous sites seem to use wording that indicates it will be a one time event. If true... it will be quite a rarity.

The 2017 South Africa 1 oz Platinum Krugerrand Proof was the best buy ever.I would not sell and will buy what ever is left.

Coin arrived in good condition in an attractive looking box. I called APMEX about the coin falling out of the case because of some of the other reviews I had read. They put some foam inside the box which worked as a wedge against the coin. They also put the box inside a ziplock bag to keep the box from opening while in transit. Good thinking on your part APMEX and good job listening to your customers. I really like the design, limited mintage, and the 50 year anniversary which makes it all the more unique. Pick one up while they last.

The coin I received is great! Came sealed in packaging straight from the South African Mint. Only thing to note that the coin was loose in the box because the hole for the packaging wasn't too tight. It wasn't damaged for me though. I'm very pleased to add this coin as part of my collection!

I had really been anticipating getting one of these ever since I found out they were being produced, but my experience was similar to that of other reviewers. I was disappointed when the coin came as it was loose in the presentation box. The coin itself was in good shape, and lovely, but the capsule was scuffed up, which obviously is detrimental to the overall presentation. I thought about returning it, but came to the conclusion that it would be too difficult to find another, so I'm keeping it. I have been looking for a replacement capsule that will fit in the box, but haven't had any luck as of yet... I qualify my recommendation based on the poor packaging job at the SA Mint.

Just Came Back From Ngc ULTRA CAMEO PF70 !!!!!!!!!!!

When my sealed Platinum Proof Krugerrand arrived in a very secure Apmex boxing and packaging. I opened the mint box to find my Proof Krugerrand was rolling around and had broke loose of the cheap plastic capsule it was actually chipped off of a corner of plastic rim.They should take notes from the high quality capsules that the U.S Mint uses.The coin did not appear to have visible damage but was covered in these little black velvet looking fibers that are in the Mint box. I am holding my breath as its being graded right now by NGC. APMEX not at fault strictly the South African Mint.

This is a common complaint from the S. African Mint regarding their 2017, 50 year anniversary, commemorative Krugerrands. I ordered 6 platinum Krugerrands and 3 of the 6 arrived loose and outside of their protective capsules. I know that they were packed at the S. African Mint, and that APMEXis not at fault, but I can't give a high rating to proof coins arriving this way.
