For more than 600 years, lucky British Angel coins have been treasured by millions. Medieval kings and queens often bestowed Angel coins on worthy subjects, and these coveted coins were believed by many to bring the bearer good luck, fortune, and were even thought to have cured sickness and saved lives. They’re also available to modern collectors thanks to the Isle of Man, a British protectorate located between Ireland and Great Britain that has been issuing gold and silver Angel coins since 1984.
The 2024 Lucky Silver Angel that once again features the classic reverse design of the Archangel Michael slaying a dragon while the coin’s obverse shows the effigy of King Charles III. Isle of Man Angel Coin A bullion and commemorative coin based on the French Angelot or Ange design, which was introduced to England by Edward IV in 1465. The 2024 Isle of Man Silver Angel coin features King Charles III in left-profile relief on the obverse without a crown, the first time this portrait has appeared on an Isle of Man coin. History on Wikipedia Back in June 2018, when my defibrillator went off for the first and only time so far, I was working at a NJ based Manufacturing Association. The CEO there JK as you can read below had been given an angel by his mom and he continued the tradition by giving me an Isle of Man angel coin, which he had said that it would help protect me. The understanding is that if someone else needs the coin more than you do, then you pass it on to that person. After carrying this coin for a while I passed the original coin off to a close friend Lisa who needed it more than me at that time.
After giving my original coin, I then purchased two more Isle of Man silver coins. one to replace mine and one to have incase someone else needed one. The positive karma you provide to the coin by carrying it with you is part of this concept too. I then replaced the original one given to Lisa with one of the new coins I had purchased, and gave my original coin to Lourdes who had been diagnosed with serious stage breast cancer, of course passing the original coin on to someone who needs it more ! Several years later early 2024, I came across Candice, who had a sister who had cancer and young children she was helping her sister through this and watching her kids. Giving up most of her personal life to do this. I passed her my coin from my wallet upon learning this. Purchasing a few more coins, three 2024 coins one sent to Tyler and it never arrived as someone stole the coin and I got the envelope back in the return mail with no coin in it. I gave new coin 2024 to Cynthia, who I know for 6 years, to protect her as she is a special person to me. The Triumph Of Good Over Evil Struck by London’s prestigious Tower Mint in a Troy ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, these coins are treasured touchstones of good fortune and health, often passed down through generations.
