I'm slowly working towards filling up an entire air tite tube of 1/4oz gold. This piece is my latest purchase towards achieving that goal. This piece called to me for a few reasons.
The East India Company has a lot of great designs they've put out. It's no surprise they did a fantastic job with this, just like many others before it.
Obverse
Unlike other coins with the former queen on it, this portrait features a younger version of the queen. It's much more flattering and pleasant to look at.
Reverse
On the back of the coin is the St. Helena coat of arms. The background features what resembles a spaced out honeycomb-like pattern. Very cool!
As an interesting side note, St. Helena is an isolated island 1200 miles off the coast of Africa. It became Napoleon's last place of exile and where he was buried for a time, until his remains were later returned to France. (Source)

I paid $543.38 for this back in February, when spot price was around $2,040. Considering spot is now $2,376, I've made a small little profit already. Unlike my silver, which I have no problem trading in for gold when it's time to take a profit, I have no plans to sell any of my gold.

Sweet goal.
How many are in a tube of these anyway?
Thanks! I looked all over, and I have no clue. Nobody seems to have that listed anywhere. If I had to guess, maybe 20 in a tube? I may pick up another one, but the air tite tube I plan to fill up will have various designs in 1/4oz gold coins and rounds. 😁

That's a sweet gold coin! That tube should be filling up pretty quickly at the rate your going! I like that honeycomb look too with the coat of arms. That's really nice!

I've actually had to slow down due to changes in the budget, but I'll still be buying gold as much as I can this year.
