You are asking about a One Penny coin from South Africa (KM#2). The front has an image of Paul Kruger (the 5th President of the South African Republic) and the words "ZUID AFRIK. REPUBLIEK" (slightly abbreviated Afrikaans for "South African Republic"). The back says "1 PENNY" and the date, with a coat of arms depicting a lion, a man hlding a rifle, and a shield with an anchor. There were 263,000 such coins produced in 1898. The coin weighs about 9.5 grams and is made of bronze. According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, the coin is not about US$1.00 in Fine condition, US$3.00 in Very Fine condition, US$15.00 in Extremely Fine condition, and US$30.00 in Uncirculated condition.

Firstly the coin is not made from silver and brass. The centre is of a golden coloured alloy and the ring of an silver coloured alloy. Secondly, as for value, that depends on the rarity of the coin. There is much hype on the value of the R5 Mandela coins. I think only a select few coins are really valuable. The rest are mere circulation coins with a value equal to its face value, for now anyway. Who knows how much such circulation coins will be worth in 50 years time? I think a lot of people spending a lot of money on Mandela R5 coins will be disappointed. Caveat emptor.

Dealers sell the coins at the price of gold, one ounce, and that changes daily. Dealers have a bid & sell price. Krugerrands are also traded on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Prices change daily, so you should shop around your area. All the best dude.

Good question! I assume you are referring to the South African R5 Mandela coins. There are quite a lot in issue and some people have cottoned onto the idea of grading the coins and thus sell them for thousands. I would suggest they are worth only face value, as it is still legal tender in South Africa. And if you are looking to collect one or two as memorabilia, then by all means do so. If I had to buy one, as I am not in South Africa, I would say $8 at most. I hope that helps.
