The coin known as the angel has a fascinating history due to its connections with religion and royal authority. First issued during the reign of Edward IV, it went on to become a protective, healing piece associated with ‘touching ceremonies’ as many believed it could cure those suffering with the ‘king's evil’.
For 2026, the angel’s legacy as a protective coin endures on a secure bullion range. Presenting a fresh and modern interpretation of this historically significant coin, the reverse design features a secure pattern that serves as protection against counterfeiting. Coin designer Sandra Deina has also expertly reimagined the Archangel Michael slaying Satan, who is presented as a dragon. Encircling the design is the inscription ‘PER CRUCEM TUAM + SALVA NOS CHRISTE REDEMPTOR’, which translates as ‘By thy Cross, save us, O Christ, our Redeemer’.
