Looks Nice to me Mate :good:
Now all you need is the other 3

[matttheriley]

Which other three, Trout?

[JeffH]

I think he is referring to the other three commemorative florins;
•1927 Parliament house
•1951 50 years if Federation
•1954 Royal visit I did see the queen go past but only hazy memory (I was only 4½ at the time).

Then, of course you should have the two crowns; 1937 and 1938.
And then...(this coin collecting does suck you in.)

PS. Your centenary florin needs a Foy & Gibson bag to go with it too! Melbourne and Perth Foy Bags and the 1934-5 Centenary Florin

[matttheriley]

I do have the other three!  As a matter of fact, I believe Trout himself helped me out with 2 of them!

Also, I do have the 1937 Crown.  Fortunately its a typeset, so I wont have to sell a kidney for the 1938!

I think what will surprise you is just how tough it is to get the 1951 and 1954 coins in high MS grades. :angel:
The Parliament House and the Centenary coins were hoarded and stashed away safely, the other two coins were simply treated as Bullion and treated accordingly :ok:
