The reverses are correct, however, the obverses appear to be lifted from New Zealand coinage. Do you think this is just a mishap or are these coins fakes? Report this Post to the Staff

Princetane Pillar of the Community 4628 Posts	Posted 11/03/2020 7:31 pm Real coins, - very worn. The British coins are tails and in VG and Fine condition, the Kiwi coins are Heads and only average circulated (G - VG). Either way, overpriced and just a clueless seller from texas, hardly a hotbed of BC coin collecting. Report this Post to the Staff
CalzoneManiac Pillar of the Community United States 2233 Posts	Posted 11/03/2020 10:10 pm Figured the coins were overpriced. Based on the listing, they're probably British florins - worth maybe $4 or $5 each. I personally wouldn't pay more than $15 for this lot. Report this Post to the Staff
Princetane Pillar of the Community 4628 Posts	Posted 11/04/2020 10:51 pm In that condition, they are worth melt only and the melt on a 50% silver florin is about $6 NZD which would be $4USD. Report this Post to the Staff
