    I found this British florin coin in the collection I am going through, and have some difficulty deciphering the roman numerals on the coin. I get the mdccclx (which gets me to 1860) but what follows looks to be a b, which stands for???? Or is it a wear and should be another letter? Thanks for helping someone new to coins.
