Technically not a Gothic Florin. But a nice coin. I love that portrait of Vicky.

A great Vicky Florin!

They are referred to as Godless Florin (no Dei Gratia). Also, the "Gothic" in Gothic Florin and Gothic Crown refer to the gothic lettering font. Just FYI.

This is one of the most attractive affordable coins of the 19th Century

Something that I like about this particular coin is that it is circulated. It would be great if coins this beautiful were in circulation now.

The Australian dealer I bought it from on eBay graded it as EF and I agree. He did use an image of this coin on his business cards though.

I can see why. That's incredible for an EF.

Thanks for adding the pic Theboz. That is a beautiful example.

Very nice. That's one of my favorite modern designs.
