Anglo-Gallic. Henry VI (1422-1461) gold Salut d'Or ND (1422-1453) MS62 NGC, Paris mint, Crown mm, Fr-301, Elias-264, W&F-385B 1/a. 3.46gm. (crown) hЄHRICVS: DЄI: GRA: FRACORV: Z (retrograde): AGLIЄ: RЄX, Virgin Mary (on left) and Archangel Gabriel (on right) standing behind the shields of France and England, respectively, scroll with AVЄ (written upwards) in between, rays above / (crown) XPC ★ VIHCIT ★ XPC ★ RЄGHAT ★ XPC ★ ImPЄRAT, Latin cross within tressure, lis to left, lion to right, h below. A treasured gold emission that most frequently suffers from bending and cleaning, yet seen here on the very cusp of Choice Mint State. Indeed, the viewer will have difficulty in finding significant detractors from this piece, with perhaps a scattering of minor wisps on the reverse accounting for the designation, though these blend in among ample die polish lines.
