1934/35 Perth Centenary Florin Foys Bag gFine
Tax included.
Note: This is the bag only, without the coin.
A must have for any Melbourne Centenary Florin collector!
The Foys envelopes were distributed at both the Melbourne and Perth Foy and Gibson outlets to customers in the wake of the lacklustre engagement of the community when the commemorative florins were originally offered at a 1 shilling premium.
It is widely accepted that only a few hundred of these bags remain in the hands of collectors these days and and such they are often hard to come by in higher quality (if at all!)
The Perth Foys Bags are incredibly scarce and highly desirable in any quality. The example here still (although barely) has the top tab attached by a thin central piece. The tab will most likely become detached with any handling but should always be kept with the bag for future collectors to enjoy this historic piece of Australian history.
