The modern Florin (Two Shillings) was introduced into the British currency in 1848 and last minted for circulation in 1967.

It was replaced by the 10 New Pence coin at decimalisation.

What is the US equivalent of a Florin?

The British Florin was Two Shillings or one-tenth of a Pound. Many of the British Empire/Commonwealth countries also used the Florin. The modern Florin, not to be confused with English medieval Florin or any of the European Florins, was first issued in 1848 as a tentative step towards decimalisation, and last issued in 1967. Since the Florin has long been out of circulation, an exchange rate is not possible, but at one-tenth of a Pound, you could equate it to one-tenth of a Dollar, or 10 cents US.
