History
The Angel coin designed in 1792 by Augustine Dupre gained immediate attention as a symbol of luck when Dupre himself escaped the guillotine during the French Revolution by bribing his guards with the Angel coins. The mythology of these coins survived into the 20th and 21st centuries, with stories of fighter pilots carrying the coins in their cockpits over the skies of Vietnam and Iraq.
