Answers

Old Australian Money questions?

I have recently found about 34 Australian Florin coins from the years 1953,1954,1956,1960,1961,1962 and 1963.

Florin


Found an Australian silver florin was pretty excited to find this one, its one of the harder aussie coins to find

Where's the best place to sell rare coins and militaria etc (collectable items)?

I've got some rare military uniform buttons and some old australian coins I'd like to sell and make some money on... WW2 brass uniform buttons, 1947 australian florin, '28 half crown etc. Where can I sell them for what they're really worth?


e-bay or an antique store, i'd save the coins until they get way older to sell for more money than they're worth now. See if someone you know would like to buy it. Here are some sources to help you>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It is rare in any condition, features an enigmatic reverse and an obverse unique on Australian coins, relates to a significant event in Australia’s post-Federation history and is linked with Victoria’s first department store.

One of my favourite articles on any numismatic items relates to this coin, it was published in the Australian Coin Review in July 1971. It covers much of the numismatic background to the Melbourne Centenary florin in good detail, and is well worth reading if you can get a copy.
