A rooster symbolizing vigilance appears next to the Angel. Behind the Angel stands the fasces or bundle of rods -- a symbol of power previously carried by Roman magistrates. On the top of the fasces is the Cap of Liberty, which also appears on U.S. coinage with the same meaning. The slogan "Liberte Egalite Fraternite" appears on the reverse along with the date.

In Europe they're often called "The Lucky Gold Angels" and they're famous for bringing good luck to their owners. Their reputation started with Augustus Dupre, the coin's original designer, who credited his escape from the guillotine to the 20 Franc Gold Angel in his pocket. These stunningly beautiful coins are minted in .1867 troy ounces of pure gold and every one is at least 100 years old. These French Angels are not reproductions, but genuine, highly collectible gold coins that will never be worth less than their weight in solid gold. With the popularity of angels today, they also make ideal gifts for collectors, children, and grandchildren. These official legal tender gold coins were minted in France from 1871 to 1898 and are guaranteed authentic. Owning the famous French Angel gold coin has always been considered good luck. Legend has it that an earlier version accompanied Napoleon in his quest to conquer Europe. He carried it in the long march to Russia and back until he finally misplaced it -- the day before the Battle of Waterloo. The coin's designer, Augustine Dupré, held a gold angel as he prayed for his life, catching the eye of his guard, allowing him to negotiate his escape from the guillotine
