About the French Angel Coin
Modelled on an allegorical figure by sculptor Auguste Dupre, the Angel coin was revived under the Third Republic as a symbol of Gallic democratic values. The obverse shows the Genius of France writing the constitution on a tablet; the reverse bears a proud Gallic cockerel. Struck from 1871 to 1898, surviving examples in collectible grades are increasingly scarce. As a Latin Monetary Union coin it is VAT-exempt across the EU and recognised at every bullion dealer.
