THE 10 KG 99.99% PURE GOLD THE DANCE SCREEN (THE SCREAM TOO), A ONE-OF-A-KIND COIN FROM THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT, SURPASSES $1.5 MILLION AT HEFFEL AUCTION

Published

OTTAWA, ON, Nov. 21, 2024 /CNW/ – The Royal Canadian Mint is delighted that the one-of-a-kind 2024 10 kg 99.99% Pure Gold Coin – The Dance Screen (The Scream Too), an exquisite numismatic tribute to the art of acclaimed Haida master carver Chief 7IDANsuu (James Hart), sold for $1,561,250.00 CAD (including Buyer’s Premium), after a live auction conducted by Heffel Fine Art Auction House (Heffel). This rare, pure gold masterpiece was sold to an anonymous bidder on November 20, 2024, and beat the previous record for a coin offered at auction in Canada, held by The Ultimate, a one kilo pure platinum coin also produced by the Royal Canadian Mint.

“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. 

“It has been an extraordinary privilege to auction The Dance Screen (The Scream Too) 10kg pure gold coin,” said David Heffel, President of Heffel Fine Art Auction House. “The profoundly significant artwork by the esteemed Chief James Hart, showcased on its face, stands as an enduring icon of Canadian art, embodying the rich traditions and cultural narratives of the Haida Nation. We are honoured to have placed this masterpiece in a distinguished collection and look forward to seeing its legacy continue to inspire.”

Impeccably crafted from 10 kg of 99.99% pure Canadian gold, The Dance Screen (The Scream Too) re–creates carved images from the original red cedar panel carved by Chief 7IDANsuu on its reverse. The reverse design of the flagship coin of the 2024 Opulence Collection brings together traditional Haida figures—a Shaman, the Beaver, Raven, Eagle, Frog, Orca and Mother Bear with cubs—whose life deeply depends on the Salmon, represented in human and animal form along the edge. Six pearlescent pieces of responsibly sourced abalone shell are inlayed along the coin’s edge, where their aquatic hues shimmer in the light and their shapes evoke the Haida copper shields that serve as traditional markers of wealth. The imposing coin’s obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati, surrounded by an engraving of subtle sketch lines from the original carving.

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Oracle AI World — Oracle today announced Oracle Fusion Companion with Oracle Fusion Agentic Home, two new capabilities for Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications that transform how employees get work done. Fusion Companion provides an intelligent layer that understands business objectives and automatically selects and coordinates the appropriate transactions, workflows, approvals, AI agents, and agentic applications needed to execute work and achieve business outcomes. Users no longer need to know which application to navigate, which transaction to execute, which workflow or approval to initiate, or which AI agent to use. Fusion Companion determines how to get the work done while maintaining enterprise security, permissions, and controls. Users can access these capabilities through supported AI tools such as ChatGPT or through Oracle Fusion Agentic Home, the native AI experience within Oracle Fusion Applications.

“AI is changing where enterprise work begins, but organizations need to maintain control over how that work gets done,” said Chris Leone, executive vice president, Applications Development, Oracle. “Fusion Companion enables employees to define business objectives and execute work through the AI tools they already use, while Oracle Fusion provides the business context, execution capabilities, and enterprise controls needed to get that work done. With Fusion Agentic Home, we’re bringing this same intelligence to the millions of people who work in Oracle Fusion Applications every day, giving them a simpler way to execute work, from everyday tasks to complex business processes, without having to navigate multiple applications or understand the underlying workflows and AI agents.”

Fusion Companion enables users to work with Oracle Fusion Applications through supported AI tools such as ChatGPT.

It automatically selects and coordinates the appropriate transactions, workflows, approvals, AI agents, and agentic applications, whether completing a simple task or executing a complex business process. Fusion Companion can also leverage data and context from other enterprise systems and coordinate authorized actions across those systems, enabling work to be completed across applications while respecting established security, permissions, and controls. With Fusion Companion, organizations will be able to:

Simplify enterprise work: Helps employees achieve business outcomes by identifying the agents, applications, and business processes needed to complete their request.Accelerate business execution: Executes complex business work by coordinating specialized AI agents, business processes, and Fusion Agentic Applications, including Fusion Claw-powered applications that perform deep analysis, planning, simulation, optimization, and long-running execution across large volumes of enterprise data.Increase flexibility in how employees work: Enables users to work with Oracle Fusion Applications through supported AI tools such as ChatGPT and customer- or partner-built AI interfaces, while maintaining access to relevant business context and capabilities.Connect work across enterprise systems: Helps organizations coordinate activities across Oracle Fusion Applications, other cloud applications, enterprise content, data platforms, APIs, services, and third-party agents.Maintain enterprise security and accountability: Helps organizations execute AI-driven work within established identity, permissions, policies, and approval controls while keeping enterprise execution and accountability within Oracle Fusion Applications.

Oracle Fusion Agentic Home, supported by Fusion Companion, is a personalized, AI-native experience that enables users to define business objectives, delegate work to AI agents and agentic applications, and track progress through completion. With Fusion Agentic Home, organizations will be able to:

Simplify the employee experience: Enables users to express business objectives through a personalized, AI-native experience that automatically identifies and executes the appropriate work, without requiring users to navigate applications, initiate workflows, or select individual AI agents.Increase employee productivity: Helps users complete work faster by bringing together the information, AI agents, agentic applications, and business processes needed to achieve their objectives.Resolve business exceptions: Identifies the root causes of business exceptions, determines appropriate corrective actions, and executes authorized resolutions while escalating decisions that require human judgment.Enable governed delegation: Enables employees to delegate work to Oracle Fusion AI agents and agentic applications that execute within established enterprise permissions, policies, and approval controls, allowing employees to focus on business objectives, exceptions, and decisions requiring human judgment.
