Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1951-1952 Australian 1 Florin coin is that it was minted during a time of significant change in the country's currency. The coin was introduced as part of a new decimal currency system that replaced the previous system based on pounds, shillings, and pence. The 1 Florin coin was equivalent to one tenth of a pound and was designed to be easily recognizable and accessible to the visually impaired, with a distinctive shape and size that set it apart from other coins in circulation.
