The "Angel" was a gold coin first introduced into England by Edward IV in 1465. The coin came from France where it was known as an "Angelot". It was briefly known as an "Angel-Noble", the "Noble" being the coin it replaced. The "Angel" had an initial value of Six Shillings and Eight Pence (or one-third of a Pound or 80 Pence). During the 16th Century, the value of the "Angel" changed from values between 80 Pence to 132 Pence (or 11 Shillings). The dimensions of the coin also changed reflecting the relative value of the coin. The "Angel" was effectively replaced in 1663 when the standard issue gold coin became the "Guinea".
