Description
(1942-1945) Australia Florin, MS62
Struck on a U.S. Five Cent Silver Planchet
194X-S Australia Florin -- Struck on a U.S. Silver Five Cent
Planchet -- MS62 NGC. 4.9 grams. One of two examples known for
this specific error, showing a 1940s Australia Florin struck on a
silver wartime nickel planchet. The San Francisco Mint struck
Australian Florins from 1938 to 1945, overlapping the period in
which the same mint utilized silver-alloy planchets for U.S.
nickels (1942 to 1945). The present piece shows the S mintmark
clearly on the lower reverse, but the date of the coin is off the
flan. Each side is brilliant and satiny, with a couple hair-thin
scratches on the portrait that limit the grade.
