Not a big fan of this coin, But it is an exceptional piece :good:

[stevo1962]

And worth a pretty penny no doubt

Is it a trick of the photography or is the FLO a bit weakly struck?

[Goldseeker]

Every issue I have seen of this coin has always looked good and the above is no exception.

But what is "FLO" from the previous comment please?

[wwwww]

The first three letters of florin.

Even the Foy and Gibson bags are collectable pity they can't be slabbed

The first three letters of florin.

Maybe they need to be slabbed (like baseball cards and banknotes). Lots of them are reportedly fakes, both because the bags are worth good money on their own and to give support to fakes.
