The ANGEL. previously, this coin was known as the NOBLE, and the new one (which had an angel on it) was known as the angel noble. As so often happens, the second (and technically corect) part of the name gradually fell out of use.

What is an Angel coin?

The "Angel" was a gold coin first introduced into England by Edward IV in 1465. The coin came from France where it was known as an "Angelot". It was briefly known as an "Angel-Noble", the "Noble" being the coin it replaced. The "Angel" had an initial value of Six Shillings and Eight Pence (or one-third of a Pound or 80 Pence). During the 16th Century, the value of the "Angel" changed from values between 80 Pence to 132 Pence (or 11 Shillings). The dimensions of the coin also changed reflecting the relative value of the coin. The "Angel" was effectively replaced in 1663 when the standard issue gold coin became the "Guinea".

What Edward IV coin has Hornchurch Romford and Havering on it?

If you can read it, it is not an Edward IV coin. The coins of this period were hammered and irregularly roundish and the poorly defined inscriptions are in Latin. It is most likely a Conder token produced around 1795, possibly a Halfpenny, featuring Edward IV on the obverse with the words "EDWARD IV GRANTED CHARTER AD 1465". The reverse has the words "HORNCHURCH ROMFORD AND HAVERING" around the circumference, and a crowned shield with the words "LIBERTY OF HAVERING ATTE BOWER" surrounding a castle. It is not known who issued them and they do not have the date on them, but about 10,500 of them were made by Matthew Boulton.
