The Gold Angels of the French Republic
In the late 18th century, Augustine Dupré of the Monnaie de Paris was appointed to design a new French coin and used his infatuation with Angels as his muse. The image he designed of an Angel inscribing the French constitution is one of the most iconic to feature on any coin.
