AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An exceptionally scarce and highly coveted modern gold masterpiece from the East India Company, struck on behalf of the island of St. Helena.
The reverse beautifully portrays Queen Elizabeth II in the allegorical guise of Una, guiding the British Lion with her sceptre, complete with the Latin motto "DIRIGE DEUS GRESSUS MEOS" (May God Direct My Steps). The obverse presents the definitive effigy of Her Majesty by Jody Clark.
Struck to absolute perfection in 1/4 Troy Ounce of .9999 fine pure gold, the coin exhibits a breathtaking Ultra Cameo contrast with heavily frosted relief figures over deep, mirror-like background fields. The coin has never been handled and remains completely untouched and sealed inside its original mint protective acrylic capsule. Representing an incredibly tiny worldwide release of just 499 pieces, this edition is highly sought after by global collectors, driving its numismatic premium far beyond its intrinsic gold melt value.
