Issued to celebrate the opening of the then new Parliament House, Canberra.

Struck from sterling silver – spans 28.50mm in diameter.

An essential element of every Australian collection – click add to cart!

The launch of what is now known as Old Parliament House in 1927 was significant enough to inspire Australia’s first commemorative coin type – the 1927 Canberra Florin.

Whilst the obverse bears a fine portrait of King George V by Sir Edgar Mackennal, it is George Kruger Gray’s reverse motif that has made this coin an icon of Australian numismatics. Featuring the Parliament building framed within a delightful cameo motif, many believe the beautifully balanced, richly symbolic 1927 Canberra Florin is Australia’s most beautiful coin.

An affordable opportunity to add this historic, eye-catching sterling silver coin to your collection, we have the 1927 Canberra Florin in Fine to Very Fine condition. Click add to cart now!
