Hi all,

   What's the alignment of the Gothic Florin? Numista page says it's medal alignment but the one I got (year 1855) is coin alignment. Is there something wrong with the coin?

It could be a forgery as the edge looks very good for a coin that's so worn.

You may note I said "could be" not is. By the way there are plenty out there as it mentions in my book "beware of recent fakes". Book is Coin Yearbook 2009, all about UK, Irish, Scottish, Channel Islands, and I.O.M.

Thanks guys! The edge looks OK, it's worn but the reeding seems to be uniform. I was wondering whether it's actually coin alignment (and not medal as it says in the Numista page).
