- Superbly Struck and Lustrous Edward IV Angel GREAT BRITAIN. Angel, ND (1471-83). London Mint. Edward IV. PCGS MS-63 Gold Shield. 5.11 gms, 79.0 grains (Law Sale Catalog). S-2091; North-1626; Fr-139. Mintmark: Heraldic Cinquefoil. Obverse: St. Michael, with feathered wings, spearing dragon. Reverse: Ship with shield at center; 'E' and rose flank thick cross-like mast. Quintessential "War of the Roses" type. A stunning coin obtained directly at the Thomas H. Law Collection sale six years ago by the consignor and fetching a seemingly dear price. However, the lifelike facial details and ruffled feathers facing off with the sneering dragon head form a powerful image. As made, Mint State, possessing a near perfect strike and flan quality. Frosty and choice in all respects. An ideal type coin from this series a heavenly Angel. Estimate: $6,000 - $10,000. Provenance: From the Downing Collection. Ex: Thomas H. Law Collection of English Gold Coins (Stack's Bowers - 8/2013) Lot 20040 @ $11,750. Ex: Glendining (4/1982) Lot 6. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
