Australia 1956 Florin PCGS MS64 (Choice Uncirculated)
$450.00 AUD

Struck at the Melbourne Mint in the year the Victorian capital hosted the Olympic Games, the 1956 Silver Florin is undoubtedly one of the key dates in the Queen Elizabeth 1953-64 Series. Desirable in any grade, we have this vital coin available in Choice Uncirculated condition!
The first standard Coat of Arms florin issue to see F:D (Defender of the Faith) return to the obverse inscription after the controversy of the ‘godless’ coinage of 1953 and 1954, the 1956 Florin has always been highly sought after. Carrying the second highest catalogue value of all issued Elizabeth II Australian predecimal coins – behind only the extremely low-mintage 1953 Sixpence – this date is missing from many collections in superior grade. Now, you can add it to your own collection in absolutely sensational quality!
