Not my forte but appears to be a Henry VIII Angel or Half Angel, depending on size. Mintmark appears to be Castle (No 69) dating it widely 1509-26.
Angel is S2265, Half Angel is S2266.

Nice info Paddy, I was going to supply pretty much the same info..
½ Angel: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces52683.html
1 Angel: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces52681.html

Looking closely at Numista, I think yours is the 1 Angel, not the half, the The ship and wording the the reverse does not match the ½ Angel The Bow mast is more horizontal, indicating the 1 Angel
Also the Dragon's (is it a dragon?) tail loops back under itself on the 1 Angel, and on the ½Angel it loops back over it.

Very nice gold piece -
