Historical Insight:
Introduced in 1849 as part of Britain’s early move toward decimalization, the florin was valued at one-tenth of a pound.
By 1872, the design had evolved to reflect the grandeur of the British Empire during its height — combining royal symbolism with delicate Victorian artistry.
Coins from this period were struck in sterling silver (.925) and are admired for their intricate engraving and balanced symmetry.
