1934-35 Australian Melbourne Centenary Florin.  Reference photos for Forgeries/Copies. In base metals. Basically worthless.
There are many copies of this coin that look realistic, especially to the novice. Only buy key date Australian coins (1932 florin, 1934-35 Florin, 1938 crown, 1933 shilling, 1923 halfpenny, 1930 penny, etc) from recognized coin dealers. Yes, I have quite a number of genuine Melbourne Centenary florins at present, listed below, I like this design and try to keep stock of it, these mostly bought by me from Australia's top Sydney coin dealer.

1934-35 Melbourne Centenary Florin. With mint lustre, near Uncirculated. Per photos.
This handsome design was the second commemorative florin issued by Australia and was sold at one shilling above the face value with the balance going towards the 100 years of Melbourne celebrations. Because money was hard to come by during the Depression many people would not pay 3 shillings for a 2 shilling  coin and 21,000 of the 75,000 minted remained unsold and were melted down. Most are found in higer grades, EF to UNC, as this coin rarely circulated and was saved by collectors. Beware of fakes. Only buy from recognized dealers or large coin auctions.

1967 Swan or Goose dollar proof.
Silver, 38mm, 28.7 grams. Plain edge, near FDC. Proof issue, numerous hairlines, as most of the proofs were foolishly brushed by the staff before being boxed!

The 1967 “Goose” $1 is not an official issue, although it does hold an interesting part in Australia’s coin history. The Swan Pattern dollar has been nicknamed the “Goose dollar” by collectors. As decimal currency was to be introduced in 1966, collectors were surprised to learn that a $1 coin would not be included in the new issues. So, in 1965 the Aust Coin Review ran a competition and the winning entry submitted to the Aust government. When this coin was rejected by the authorities, competition organizers decided to have it minted privately. In 1967 it was engraved & struck by John Pinches of London. The design, by Andor Meszaros features a swan with Australia 1967 on the obverse and wattle with 100 (cents) printed on the reverse. On the obverse (swan side) at approx 4 o’clock right next to the rim are the designers initials. 1500 made in UNC, 750 in proof.
