French 20 Franc Angels (1871-1898)

French Angels, and all French 20 Francs, see consistent demand from a variety of gold buyers thanks to their attractive combination of characteristics. Their smaller size (.1867-oz. or about 1/5th of an ounce) and better pricing than modern fractional gold coins like 1/10-oz. American Eagles make them an obvious choice for those that either prefer smaller gold coins or like adding some fractionals to their 1-oz. gold coin holdings.

Last struck in 1898, the supply of Gold French Angels is naturally fixed and limited in contrast to all modern bullion coins that are struck in large numbers annually which adds extra profit-potential. Many gold owners want at least a small portion of “barter-gold” (fractional coins ideal for use as money) for peace of mind in case of an emergency scenario where coins like the 1/5-oz. French 20 Francs would be critical.

French Angels are delivered in lightly circulated condition as would be expected given their age. Each coin is about the size of a modern penny. Mint Rolls of 50 are available for larger orders.
