The 1943M Australian Florin is a rare and highly sought-after coin struck at the Melbourne Mint during World War II. In choice uncirculated to gem uncirculated condition, this is a superior coin with an almost perfect Strike. May show just a few minute detracting marks, barely visible to the naked eye.

The obverse features the youthful portrait of King George VI, symbolising the monarchy during the war years. The reverse displays the Australian Coat of Arms, with the iconic kangaroo and emu flanking a shield beneath a crown and surrounded by a laurel wreath, representing Australia’s sovereignty and unity during a challenging period.
