A pin head is a natural item, that is, it is subject to universal rules. It has a finite size. This size may be expressed in square units of the planck length.
In order to dance on a pin head, each angel must occupy a space within the natural universe, with a minimal size of 1 square planck.
Let us simplify and presume that our pinhead is 1mm circle, or 1.6162412e31 plancks, and thus has an area of pi * (1.6162412e31 plancks / 2) ^ 2 = pi * (3.0935977e31 plancks) ^ 2 = 3.006613e62 square plancks.
If we assume that the dance can be done with the arms, in arbitrary vertical orientation, the angel can remain stationary. This means all square plancks can house an angel.
That's 300,661, 300,000, 000,000, 000,000, 000,000, 000,000,000, 000,000, 000,000, 000,000, 000,000....
which is a lot.

That is the question asked by the clergy in the Dark Ages.
The new question today should be how many atoms can exist in the pin head.

An infinite number if the angels be small enough and the pin be big enough.

Depends upon the size of the pin.

An infinite number of angels.

properly purely one angel can stand on the suited of a pin, because in case you calculate the circumference of the suited of the pin, the dimensions of the foot of angel is fairly vast than that of a length of head of pin. .'. for this reason if one angel is already status on the suited, there is not any extra area left for the different angel.
