1892 Florin Victoria Silver Coin

Rare date 1892 UK silver Florin: the last to feature Joseph Edgar Boehm's Jubilee Head portrait of Queen Victoria.

Just 283,401 Florins were struck for circulation in London at the Royal Mint in 1892, making this by far the scarcest date in the Jubilee Head series. These currency coins were minted in the year of a General Election, which saw William Ewart Gladstone form his fourth administration as Prime Minister.

• The obverse features a crowned and veiled portrait with 'VICTORIA DEI GRATIA' around
• The reverse shows crowned shields with sceptres in the angles, a design by Leonard Charles Wyon
