bellyflorin Valued Member Australia 157 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 04:03 am oh my florin, the bullion value for those 12 florins would be around $66 anyway, if you got a nice 1956 in that lot you would be ahead. It's good to see another florin collector. Fair priced paid I reckon Report this Post to the Staff

wwwww Pillar of the Community Australia 541 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 04:10 am There's nothing worth more than bullion in that date range in VF, the 1951/52/53/54/56 in EF command premiums over bullion in the retail market but are also bullion coins wholesale. That being said bullion is $60 so you only paid a little over wholesale. Report this Post to the Staff

wwwww Pillar of the Community Australia 541 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 04:16 am You should get an UNC 1944-S, if you shop hard enough you can get them for around $15, they're very common. Report this Post to the Staff
