The Gothic Florin has to be one of the coolest coins ever.

Irishraider,

I would have to agree with you on that.

The Gothic Florin is one of the greatest looking coins around.

This isn't a Victorian one but I am hoping to get it just the same. I would really love to get a Gothic in the future though. However, I am a perfectionist, which is my downfall when it comes to coins and won't want one in less than almost uncirculated or uncirculated condition and I know this could be pricey.

I am working on a British empire set for lack of the correct term trying to collect from each perspective territory, country etc. I would love to put a Victorian set together . Yours are very nice . And to mimic dsking. I agree I like Victoria's images on the coins. " So Regal". No Pun intended.

Wow, AuldFartte, I love your coins, especially that 1887 Double Florin. By the way, I also love your name - AuldFartte - it just makes me laugh everytime I see it!

Here's a few more just for fun ... Click on these to enlarge 'em. The smaller pics make the coins look a bit fuzzy. Large is sharp and clear.

1891 Sovereign, Jubilee Head

1887 Crown, Jubilee Head

1900 Sixpence, Old Head

The indentation on the cheek of the sixpence is not a "hit". It's either a planchet flaw or a strike through error.

AuldFartte, you do realise that you are lucky you live in the U.S.? If you lived anywhere near me, you would come home one day and find all your coins mysteriously kidnapped! Very nice coins!

Remind me to not come and visit you
