Bid at live.noble.com.au
SOLD $50
GREAT BRITAIN, Royal Mint trial die, 36mm, struck in matt bronze, undated, but probably early - mid 20th century, obv. around BRITANNIA MONETA, with seated figure of Britannia coining, rev. Mint buildings and legend THE ROYAL MINT LONDON. Extremely fine, very scarce.
This may have some association with a double florin, because of its size. The large trial coins are significantly scarcer than the smaller pieces.
