I couldnt be buggered getting this out of the 2x2 so the photos arent the best but I saw this and loved the gold toning on the reverse. Underneath is full mint lustre. The obverse is fully lustrous as well.

That is an absolute stunner enwarb
If you ever fall out of love with it I will give it a good home
this looks like it grades as aUNC or AU55-AU58, In my opinion it does have outstanding eye appeal and is a nice honest coin.
Well done , nice pick up

This is the first higher grade one of these. Although they arent worth a heap I was waiting for one that was struck up nice. This one practically jumped into my pocket.

I wouldn't underestimate these, that coin has a book value of over $100 or at least $50 ebay and they are getting more expensive every day
There was only 2 million of these minted and most of them have been scratched,worn, cleaned or otherwise abused along with the other 2 lower value commemorative florins.
To get a nice one like yours is quite difficult and is well worth hanging on to, like I said that is one sweet florin and is a worthy addition to any one's collection
Especialy mine
