Saturday hunt - Victorian Silver :)

Had a fun time Saturday in a couple of spots, Spent 4-5 hours and ended up with this lot.
The most Silvers in a day - 10! Including a Victorian Shilling and my 1st Florin.
Oh and someone lost there key ring sometime ago...

    Congrats on all that silver.
    Is the 1800's shilling a higher silver content?
    Maybe 90%?

    Congrat's on a good hunt! For some reason I also find silver Florins to be rare.

    1800s shilling should be .925 silver as far as I know. It's thinner than the NZ 50% silver shilling.
