一枚独特的 10 公斤金币，上面印有著名海达艺术家 Chief 7IDANsuu（詹姆斯·哈特）的作品，在赫菲尔美术拍卖行于 2024 年 11 月 20 日举行的现场拍卖会上以 1,561,250 加元（含买家佣金）成交。

The sale sets a new record for the highest price ever achieved at auction for a coin in Canada, surpassing the record previously held by The Ultimate, a one-kilogram platinum coin.

此次拍卖创下了加拿大硬币拍卖史上的最高价格纪录，超过了此前由一公斤铂金币 The Ultimate 保持的纪录。

The coin, produced by the Royal Canadian Mint, is crafted from 99.99 per cent pure Canadian gold and features intricate carvings inspired by Chief Hart’s original cedar panel, The Dance Screen (The Scream Too). Its reverse depicts traditional Haida imagery, including a Shaman, Beaver, Raven, Eagle, Frog, Orca, and Mother Bear with cubs, all connected to the salmon—an essential symbol in Haida culture. The design is further enhanced with six inlays of responsibly sourced abalone shell.

这枚硬币由加拿大皇家造币厂生产，采用 99.99% 的纯加拿大黄金精制而成，其复杂的雕刻图案灵感源自 Chief Hart 的原创雪松板《舞幕》（The Scream Too）。它的背面描绘了传统的海达图像，包括萨满、海狸、乌鸦、鹰、青蛙、逆戟鲸和带着幼崽的熊妈妈，所有这些都与鲑鱼有关，鲑鱼是海达文化的重要象征。六块镶嵌的负责任采购的鲍鱼壳进一步增强了设计。

“We are thrilled by the collector interest in this unique coin and delighted that the skill of the Royal Canadian Mint and the talent of Chief 7IDANsuu (James Hart) have been recognized by the buyer of this rare and beautiful 10 kg pure gold masterpiece,” said Marie Lemay, president and CEO of the Royal Canadian Mint.

“我们对收藏家对这款独特硬币的兴趣感到兴奋，并很高兴加拿大皇家造币厂的技术和首席 7IDANsuu（詹姆斯·哈特）的才华得到了这枚罕见而美丽的 10 公斤纯金杰作的买家的认可。”加拿大皇家造币厂总裁兼首席执行官玛丽·勒梅 (Marie Lemay) 说道。

The coin’s obverse features the effigy of King Charles III, designed by Canadian artist Steven Rosati, framed by subtle sketch lines referencing the original carving.

硬币的正面是国王查理三世的肖像，由加拿大艺术家史蒂文·罗萨蒂设计，周围有参考原始雕刻的微妙草图线。

David Heffel, president of Heffel Fine Art Auction House, highlighted the cultural and artistic significance of the piece: “The profoundly meaningful artwork by Chief James Hart, featured on this exceptional coin, reflects the cultural heritage and artistic traditions of the Haida Nation. This sale represents a new milestone, and we are honoured to see this masterpiece placed in a distinguished private collection.”

赫菲尔美术拍卖行总裁戴维·赫菲尔强调了这件作品的文化和艺术意义：“这枚独特的硬币上体现了詹姆斯·哈特酋长意义深远的艺术作品，反映了海达民族的文化遗产和艺术传统。这次拍卖代表着一个新的里程碑，我们很荣幸看到这件杰作被纳入杰出的私人收藏。”

The record-setting sale highlights the growing demand for rare numismatic pieces that combine cultural significance and artistic excellence. The anonymous buyer of the coin, which serves as the flagship of the Mint’s 2024 Opulence Collection, has added a historically and artistically significant work to their collection.

此次创纪录的拍卖突显了人们对结合了文化意义和艺术卓越性的稀有钱币的需求不断增长。这枚硬币是造币厂 2024 年 Opulence 系列的旗舰版，该硬币的匿名买家为他们的收藏增添了一件具有历史和艺术意义的作品。
