| Additional information |
Saint Helena conducted a coinage reform study in the early 2000s, with these Nordic gold patterns produced to test potential specifications for a decimalized local series. Nordic gold — the same copper-aluminum-zinc-tin alloy used for euro coins — was under serious consideration by several British Overseas Territories at the time as a cost-effective, corrosion-resistant option suited to remote island environments. The patterns were never adopted; Saint Helena continued using the Saint Helena pound tied to sterling.
