1582 -1584 Elizabeth I Gold Angel
Typically used in Royal Touching ceremonies, specimens are often found holed for wearing, however, our specimen is intact. During Elizabeth I's reign, the coin was worth 10 shillings, but had been revalued several times before from its original issue value of 6/8d.
There were many different issues of Angels during Elizabeth I's reign identified by the mintmark. Our specimen is identified by its 'A' mintmark, meaning it was minted between 1582-1584.
