Please grade this coin, and maybe approx. value in this grade? (because my catalog is very old...)

G'day, I'm not into grading. There aren't many pearls left on the crown. My estimate is that others will grade this as F~VF.
Renniks 22nd edition, 2007, says 1917 had a mintage of 4.3million; and values F at $20; VF at $60.
hope this helps,

I would grade this as VF-20 by US standards.

Hi,
You might be interested in the ANDA coin grading guide (.pdf), because they use the KGV Florin as their example. There I read, "On the Obverse of George V coins, the centre diamond should show all four edges, but the pearls to the left have worn away." Judging from the portrait and overall details, yours appears to be VF.
