Is the diameter of this coin smaller than that of a standard Australian 20 cent coin?


Yes, based on a 1.123" diameter.


The 1 florin is larger than an Australian 20 cent coin.

Last time I checked 28.3 is smaller than 28.52

My guess is 1929 U.K. florin KM#834.

They are pretty much the same size.

20 cent is 28.52mm
Florin is 28.3 mm

Since everyone else is refusing to "guess" it, my guess is the most common of the UK George V florins, the 1929.

You got it keith. Congrats.

Now here's the twist I have for this round. Technically it is my coin, but it's not in my possession, so "I" can't post pics. But......trig can! That's right, the coin is in trig's hands.

The coin was gifted to me in Princetanes last give away. Thanks again Princetane. Trig saved him some postage by accepting it for me. I'll get it one of these days.

There are pics on Princetanes thread if you need to see it now. I was expecting keith to magically find the link, but he must be slipping. .

So trig, if you don't mind, please post my coin for us. .

Let me get my miners helmet out for the next round.

That was very sneaky of you Loonie.
It was sitting in my safe 2 feet away from me all that time.

Anyway here is your coin (I might swap for mine yet )

So triggersmob knew what the coin was all along and was deliberately leading us astray and wasting questions.

No, I tucked it away in my safe with a bunch of other coins I have for Loonie and forgot all about it. :(

I must say, that was funny Loonie.
Right under your nose Trigg

I, much like Looine, do not have coin in hand yet.
But I do have a tracking number. And PCGS photos

I'm ready

Is this coin older than 500 years?
