1954 Florin (Royal Visit)

Apparently, the symbolism was lost on some commentators at the time. Maybe the lion was not readily associated with the queen whose visit the coin was to commemorate. The lion does tend to obscure the kangaroo.

The only reason the Roo is still there is because the Lion had just eaten the Emu :diablo::laugh2:
