The bottom one is a corker, I'd love me one of those. May I enquire as to the value of such?

Thanks, not looking to sell atm, I'd like to see about grading and slabbing. But in the future who knows. The bottom one is the 'WW' variety whereas the top one is the 'WW Obliterated' one, rarer. I've seen slabbed examples go for hundreds more.

Let me take a guess from my position of near ignorance, £250?

It would have to be a bit more for me to sell as is.

Have a look on auction sites, some go for quite a bit, others you can fall lucky. Really nice coins in hand.

Lovely Gothic florin, 2 different varieties.  I think your estimate is more or less around the market price at auctions at this moment, but please do not forget the additional auction premium at approximate 20% on top of the hammered price.

Anyway as I said previously i'm not looking to sell, I am going to send them to NGC to be graded. I think they are ones for the future.

By the way, just seen this on ebay, asking price £3,950!   Looking at that, it makes mine worth about 10k! lol

Spink, Lockdales, the 20% is before the VAT.
