Found a Gothic florin

[kiwi-jim]

I came across two new areas in our travels,one is a racecourse and the other, I suspect is an old military training ground.The total of the $1 and $2 dollar coins is $61,I am still trying to work out the date on the florin around the 1870's I think.unfortunatly we ran out of time and had to leave,but already making plans for a return trip..KJ

Hi NebTrac,
New Zealand was the last country in the commonwealth to issue its own coinage, that happened in 1933,that explains why we get a lot of old english coins.it is great to find the modern $1 and $2 coins but I get a real buzz out of finding any old silver coins they just seem to tell a story especially the older very worn ones......KJ
