The 2 in the date does not look right to me.
My guess is altered date.
Would need better pics to confirm.

Strange looking head on that kangaroo!

Need to do a comparison ring tone test.
Need to weigh it.
Who is selling it? How good is reputation? Is he a well known dealer?

If you can't get provable answers to these questions and tests from the seller, I wouldn't bother with it.

The 2 is not rotated enough (to inline with the 3)

1932 Florin to determine authenticity. Originally the date looked strange with the older photos so I have added 4 new photos with different light. Hope these help.

This is a genuine 1932 Florin.
The "2" in the date of your coin is at a strange angle compared to this one. That is how we can tell that the date has been altered.

My guess is a contemporary forgery.
There's definitely something off about the "2" in 1932, there's something not quite right about the orientation of the king too. Lastly, the star above the CofA is a little too sharp considering the wear displayed on the rest of the coin.
