"This Wretched Coin". This was the comment in an article in the Daily Telegraph June 27 1887 which heavily criticised its arrival. The worse thing however was the size, only slightly smaller than a crown piece (5 shillings), the double florin (4 shilling piece) was often passed in the dingy pubs to the barmaids as the larger coin, hence the nickname the ‘barmaids ruin’. It only lasted for six years before it was withdrawn to the relief of the barmaids!
