Description

Anglo-Gallic. Henry VI (1422-1461) gold Salut d'Or ND AU Details (Damaged) NGC, Paris mint, Crown mm, Fr-301, Elias-264a (R), W&F-385A 2/c. 27mm. 3.46gm. (crown) hЄNRICVS: DЄI: GRA: FRACORV: Z: AGLIЄ: RЄX, Virgin Mary (on left) and Archangel Gabriel (on right) standing behind shields of France and England, respectively, scroll with AVЄ (written downwards) in between, rays above / (crown) XPC' S VINCIT S XPC' S RЄGNAT S XPC' S IMPЄRAT, Latin cross within tressure, lis to left, lion to right, h below. Residually lustrous and produced on a perfectly round flan free of edge flaws and even showing hints of the plain outer border surrounding the legends. The damage seems to refer to a scuff over Mary's figure, though that of the Archangel is exquisitely detailed, suggesting a bit conservative of a grade for such an immensely appealing piece.
