1914-18 WWI Predecimal Coin Pack
Tax included.
Genuine, original artefacts of the First World War, the coins struck from 1914 to 1918 enable the collector to form a tangible connection with those who served Australia during the nation's Baptism of Fire.
Struck the best part of a century ago, and issued in very low numbers to accommodate a small Australian WWI population, the coins of 1914-18 are increasingly hard-to-find. This is particularly the case with the florin, shilling, sixpence and threepence because, as they are struck from sterling silver (92.5% pure), a huge number have been melted for the intrinsic silver value.
