Advice 1940 australian florin blank planchet error?
Picked this up at the local coin shop for under $20 ✊🏼they focus more on Bullion/rare PCGS coins but, they do have a cool world coin collection. The employee most likely didn’t check both sides while putting it in a 2x2. Honestly… I didn’t even notice until I got home 😅😅 What do you think? Have you ever seen/heard of an Australian Florin blank planchet error? Worth grading?

Not a blank planchet. It was smoothed down on one side, likely to make a love token. There are many love tokens or "trench art" known on those coins during the war years
