The 1912 florins

F12L.2A
Mint: London
Mint mark: None
Mintage: 1,292,130

166 rim denticles on reverse. Legend has flat-base lettering.

Two varieties of this coin were listed without identification by John Dean in "The 1965 Australian Coin Varieties Catalogue". I believe the varieties shown below are the ones JD listed.

Reverse of 1912 florin
| F12L.2A.1 2nd 1 in date is upright and is positioned directly over a rim denticle.
| F12L.2A.2 2nd 1 in date leans slightly to the left and is positioned over the gap between two rim denticles.

Enlargements of the date
| Enlargement of the date portion of the first 1912 florin showing the position of the second 1 directly over a rim denticle.
| Enlargement of the date of the second 1912 florin above showing how the second 1 in the date is tilted slightly and is not aligned directly over a rim denticle.
