How much is a 1 oz 1996 Proof Krugerrand worth?

As the value of bullion Krugerrand coins is very much tied to the price of gold, it is difficult to determine the price of a 1996 Proof Krugerrand. However, a reasonable estimate for a 1996 Proof Krugerrand would be about 105% of the gold price. It is worth considerably more if it is with the fractional Proof Krugerrands.
