1 Florin - George V

Fiji's florin coinage of this period was struck at the Royal Mint under a currency arrangement tied directly to the pound sterling at parity, giving the florin its two-shilling equivalence within the colonial system. The .500 fine silver content reflects a deliberate British policy shift in the 1920s, when the Colonial Office standardized lower-silver alloys across Pacific dependencies to reduce bullion costs while maintaining the appearance of silver coinage.

The 1934 date marks the first year of issue for this type, making early examples the most significant within the short run.
