OneDollarMule Valued Member Australia 338 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 09:09 am Hey guys, just thought I'd share my latest purchase, got this coin from an antiques shop free ($0.50 marked) with some other items I bought. Just going to show that there are still bargains out there! The coin itself isn't in bad shape, there is some strange toning though, looks better in hand. Out of curiosity though how much would you say this type of coin would be valued at? Report this Post to the Staff

oh my florin Pillar of the Community Australia 1006 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 5:50 pm great pickup the coin you have has a mistrike which I think is called off-centre please correct me if I am wrong although out of all the mistrikes it is moderatly rare. In terms of price I wouldn't have a clue although I would say you are most definetly going to get back more than your 50cents paid for it:) Report this Post to the Staff
