    Hi all,

    So, while looking at some teletrade auctions yesterday my girlfriend stole my computer and decided to look at the English coins, now i am not a world guy at all but she is OBSSESED with Great Britain and Queen Victoria. She accepts my hobby and likes to look at some of my coins but this really caught her eye and i could tell she liked it alot. She said and i quote "I can't believe you have me wanting to own a coin!" So i decided i'd snag this for her from teletrade. lets hope this sparks her own collecting intrest :)

    That is an awesome coin..from the year after they stopped making the double florins, which is what mine is..it was only made for 4 years
