Item: 1849 WW Godless Florin Silver Coin Queen Victoria Details: The 1849 Godless Florin is the first circulating florin of Queen Victoria and a distinctive one‑year type issued during the early push toward decimalisation. Struck in sterling silver to a weight of 11.31 g and 28 mm diameter, it carries William Wyon’s crowned portrait of Victoria with the W.W. initials behind the bust. The obverse legend famously omits DEI GRATIA, giving rise to the “Godless” nickname and contributing to the coin’s historical significance. The reverse displays the classic cruciform arrangement of crowned shields with a central rose and national floral emblems in the angles, framed by the denomination legend. This type remains highly sought after for its short issue, its place in Victorian monetary reform, and its elegant early Wyon design. Condition: Circulated, natural blue-orange toning, scratched.
