330–337 Ancient Bronze Constantinopolis Guardian Angel NGC XF
The World’s First Guardian Angel Coin
We’ve carried angel coins in our pockets for generations. In 1465, the British Gold Angel served as a good luck charm, with coins received from the hands of monarchs believed to protect against disease and poverty. During the French Revolution, it’s said that the designer of the French “Lucky” Angel coin was saved from execution by divine intervention. Napoleon Bonaparte is said to have carried one of these coins with him everywhere he went but lost it the day before the fateful Battle of Waterloo. Even sea captains and fighter pilots have carried “guardian” angel coins with them to ensure a safe return.
But the history of Angel coins dates back to ancient times — to the days of the first Christian Empire...
Constantine’s Angel of Victory
Constantine was the world’s first Christian emperor, having merged worship of the sun god Sol Invictus with the worship of Christ. During his reign, he moved the empire’s capitol to Byzantium, renaming it Constantinopolis. The city would be the world’s first Christian capitol and remained the capitol of the Roman/Byzantine Empire for the next 1,000 years. To mark the occasion, Constantine minted special coins bearing the Angel of Victory, bearing her scepter and shield while watching from on high. The world’s first Christian Emperor had given the world its very first Guardian Angel coin.
The Face Of The Roman Empire’s First Christian Capitol
During Constantine’s reign, coins would feature the patron gods and goddesses of the city in which they were struck. Thus, the obverse of the First Guardian Angel Coin displays a helmeted bust of the goddess Constantinopolis. Struck between 330 and 337 AD, this ancient Bronze Constantinopolis Guardian Angel coin is a genuine, authentic piece of Christian history. It was struck in the world’s first-ever Christian capitol under the world’s first-ever Christian emperor. And now it can be yours!
