1890 DOUBLE FLORIN ( NF ) 6

The 1890 Double Florin from the United Kingdom is a sterling silver coin minted during Queen Victoria’s reign, introduced to simplify currency but often confused with the slightly smaller crown. On the obverse, Queen Victoria is portrayed wearing a crown and veil, symbolizing her as Empress of India. The reverse features a cruciform arrangement of shields representing England, Scotland, and Ireland, encircled by the Order of the Garter.

Graded as Near Fine (NF), this coin shows significant wear from circulation, with most of the original detail worn smooth. The main design elements are discernible, though some may be faint or partially worn away. Despite its wear, it retains its historical significance as a Victorian-era coin.
