The designer of that coin, Augustine Dupre, was sentenced to lose his head on the guillotine during the French Revolution. According to legend, however, Dupre was able to bribe his guard with the Angel coin he carried in his pocked and make his escape. Legend also says that Napoleon Bonaparte always carried an early French Angel in his pocket... until losing it the night before the fateful Battle at Waterloo. This Battle marked the beginning of his downfall. </p><p>Jewelry mounted in gold rope 18K&nbsp;&nbsp; bezel.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
