Medieval kings and queens often bestowed Angel coins on worthy subjects, and these coveted coins were believed by many to bring the bearer good luck, fortune, and were even thought to have cured sickness and save lives. As treasured touchstones, of good fortune and health, Angel coins were often passed down through generations as a family legacy. The famous French coin designer, Augustine Dupré, was appointed by King Louis XVI to design an early version of a Gold Angel coin in the 1790's. While he initially enjoyed the King's favor, the French Revolution began to brew and Dupré suddenly found himself sentenced to death at the hands of the guillotine. As legend has it, Dupré stood before the guillotine to be executed one stormy day and he pulled one of his Angel coins out of his pocket and rubbed it for good luck. At that moment, a bolt of lightning struck—causing his execution to be postponed. Before it could be rescheduled, Augustin Dupré was granted a pardon. For the rest of his life, he proclaimed that it was the lucky Angel coin which has literally saved his neck! From this incredible tale of salvation, the legend of the lucky Angel coin has grown and grown for centuries. Napoleon, King Henry VII, fighter pilots, seafarers, and rescue and police heroes have all proclaimed the Angel's powers of luck and protection.This 2014 Silver Angel comes in a protective plastic air tight and is accompanied� with an official Certificate of Authenticity. � This classic beautiful coin is believed to be a bearer of good fortune and is valued as a touch piece.
