Lorne collection of Farthings question : who was he ?

[Garrett]

Hi everyone

I have been eyeing off a farthing that was previously auctioned in the "Lorne Collection of Farthings" in Noble auction 82.

Does anyone know anything of Mr (or Mrs) Lorne ?

I am unable to find any info by a simplistic google search.

It looked like a pretty nice collection of farthings, so someone here may know of this person.

I am interested in knowing the history of any coin I might buy.  I probably would have got on alright with Lorne.

cheers Garrett.

I can't add any information, but it is quite a collection

£1 = $2 Aussie's .....there were a few nice coins at reasonable prices.
