Henry VII (1485 - 1509) Read about Henry VII

 

Hammered Gold

WAu-4617:  Henry VII Hammered Gold Angel.  Initial mark pheon so 1505 – 1509, making it a very late issue.  Class V, having the apostrophe in the king’s name.  Crack extending from the outer edge to the inner circle (4mm).  Not the best of strikes but probably the cheapest Henry VII angel at this point in time and getting cheaper the longer it remains unsold!  £739

 

 

 

Hammered Silver

Presentation “Piedfort” Piece:

WTH-4919:  Henry VII Hammered Silver Fine Work Presentation or Piedfort Piece.  Struck on a large flan of double thickness (see extra image here), the reverse utilises a Henry VII Archbishop Bainbridge half groat die whilst the obverse is from an unrecorded die where the bust exhibits similarities with the testoon coinage.  Unusual HERIC obverse legend which, as far as I’m aware, only appears on Henry VIII type E second issue groats.  Issued on behalf of the king to visiting royalty or dignitary.  Extremely high grade as this would not have been used as currency.  I’m informed that similar but larger denomination examples have achieved hammer prices of up to £10,000 in the past.  A very rare coin.  £1,780
