Rick,
I started off with some pennies, so your start was better then mine.
I love the florins, the only thing now is to keep going.

I think florins have to be one of the best coins minted, they just look cool :D

The 1927 one florin is on my list of MUST have Australian coins. My problem is there are SO many MUST haves on my list but I am making headway and with my wife actively buying as well our Aussie collection is growing in leaps and bounds! I had no idea being coin POOR could be so much fun!!!
