1862 Farthing Small 8 Which Variety

Recommended Posts

Hi...the website is only intended to categorise obvious differences, within each of these categories you can get minor variations. Only a full die study would potentially reveal all of the minor differences, but that would be a mammoth task for a majority of the Victorian series.

Your example would get classified as combination 1A on the current website, although the series is currently being renumbered to align with other publications where possible.

Very much a personal choice, you will find several topics on this forum having that very debate at present :D

If I am being honest, judging from the images supplied, that farthing is probably going to cost more to slab than the value of the coin.
