Peter THOMAS Pillar of the Community Australia 2830 Posts	Posted 10/04/2007 8:56 pm G'day, thanks for sharing your lovely coins. that was an era when coins "made a statement". In these cases, I think that the statement was "Imperial grandeur". I'm putting together a year set of 1887. When you look at that florin of 1901, you might bear this in mind: the "Tommies" in the trenches in WW1 were only paid one shilling a day. I'm also putting together a set of Australian florins. When I was a boy, a florin went a long way. Peter in Oz Report this Post to the Staff
