Henry VIII (1509-1547) gold Angel 1509-1526 MS63 PCGS, Tower mint, First coinage, Crowned Portcullis mm, S-2265, N-1760. A stunning piece, remarkable for the type with fully lustrous surfaces balanced by lovely copper-hued cabinet tone. While the overall strike is excellent, the depiction of St. Michael is especially sharp, with clear details of his hair, armor, and wings on full display. A nicer example of this type will likely be some time in coming to market.
