Been on my hit list for a while, but many thanks to @jackflash123 for this 20 franc Angel.

2024 1/10 oz Kanga
Bought in Dubai.

Some more off to storage for the long term pension stack…. 

Selection of tiny gold bars.
Not sure will make a habit of getting these but close to spot so worth the effort!
 

Nice way to stack just over an Oz at close to spot. The bulls are my favourite 1/10 to date for sure 

Result just back........... It's always buttock clenching subbing 5.5k coins and the fear of not getting the result. 

Venice Gold Ducats – Zecchino – Alvise Mocenigo II – Seven Stunning Examples! – £550 Posted Each – UK 🇬🇧
From its introduction in 1284 to the fall of Venice to Napoleon in 1797, the design of the Venetian gold ducat, more formally the zecchino, remained unaltered for more than 500 years.
Originally called a ‘ducat’ (‘ducato’) after the ruling Doge of Venice, it was latterly decided to describe such coins as zecchinos after the Zecca (mint) of Venice. The reason for this change was that in the year of 1543 Venice started to mint silver coins also described as ducats.
The obverse of these zecchinos feature a standing depiction of Saint Mark presenting staff to a kneeling doge (chief magistrate of Venice or Genoa). The letters ‘DVX’ alight vertically at the top of the staff.
The reverse boasts a forward-facing figure of Christ within a beaded, star-lined ellipse.
Each of the beautiful examples on offer here dates from the period of Doge Alvise Mocenigo II of the Republic of Venice (1700-1709) and is over 315 years old.
Each comprised of 3.50 grams of pure gold (trade standard of the time).
Price is £550 each including fully-insured postage to mainland UK and Northern Ireland.
Shipped price to the United States is $700 USD. ✈️📦🇺🇸
Payment via bank transfer to UK business bank account, PayPal, and any debit or credit card via my website.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England Gold Angel 'Touch Piece' 1660-1685 – Charles II
A very pleasing example of this rare and desirable ceremonial medallic issue. Holed as issued with comparatively fewer distractions versus many previously sold counterparts. The example on offer has been lightly cleaned but has not been mounted, bent, or soldered.
This is the larger issue with a diameter of approximately 22 mm and a weight of around 3.70 grams. More worn examples tend to fall south of 3.5 grams with those in better states of preservation being north of this.
Compare with some previously auctioned pieces (including relevant fees and buyer's premium)...

There is a deep and significant history behind these gold 'touch pieces' stemming back to the age-old belief that monarchs exhibited Christ-like healing abilities and that those touched by the monarch could be healed. The Stuart Restoration of 1660 seen the reintroduction of the ceremonial practice of 'touching for the King's evil' by Charles II. 'The King's evil' was a colloquial name used to refer to an illness known as scrofula, a tuberculous swelling of the lymph glands. The ceremony consisted of King Charles II laying his hand on the afflicted prior to them being presented with a pre-holed gold token to be worn around the neck with a ribbon. This showed that they had been healed by the King.
The obverse depicts Saint Michael slaying Satan in the form of a dragon and the reverse boasts a ship at sea with legend around.
These gold angel 'touch pieces' were produced at The Royal Mint at Tower Hill, London.
