Lot 2108
Great Britain. Angel, ND. S.2265; Fr-155, Henry VIII, 1509-47. First coinage. Michael slaying the dragon. Reverse: Features ship holding shield. A nice portrait and a well struck example. Gold Angels of Henry VIII are very much a continuation from the reign of Henry VII. The main difference is the obverse legend, where Henry VII Angels read HENRIC DEI GRA etc. while Henry VIII issue reads HENRIC VIII (or 8) DI GRA or DG. This is an exceptionally well struck coin which is in mint state. NGC graded MS-62.
