Hello and thanks all in advance.

Does any one else think this might not be the real deal.

Detail near roo,s feet missing and star seems wrong and much more worn than what the obverse seems to be.
And has it been burnt or stained. ? Thanks again.

Thanks guys I guessed it was but wasn't sure.

I want to get a 32 for my collection nothing to fancy and this was priced right but as usual if its to good to be true it generally is.

What is the toning on the coin it looks like some one chucked it in a fire .LOL it looks to dark and thick to be natural toning and the coins wear isn't at the stains level there's a lot of staining compared to the wear on the coin.
Just an observation just one the things that threw me.

Comparative ring tone test against a standard sterling silver florin should prove it is a fake.

Color looks like a very poor job of AT, looks like they were playing around with some type of sulphur compound to that 'look'
