GREAT BRITAIN. Angel, ND (1471-73). London Mint; mm: large annulet. Edward IV (second reign). PCGS MS-60.
S-2091; Fr-139; N-1626. Obverse: St. Michael standing facing, head right, spearing dragon to lower right with spear topped by cross crosslet; Reverse: Ship bearing shield and cross; Є and rose flanking cross. Fairly bold and pleasingly struck, and without any real evidence of handling but, for completeness, the deposits in portions of the obverse legend must be mentioned, along with a mark on the lower left limb of the cross on the reverse. Further, the PCGS label misidentifies the mintmark as a cinquefoil as opposed to the large annulet. To view all items from the Augustana Collection, click
