What year is this coin?

[Beau]

Hello, I bought this coin and the seller said it was a 1733 farthing, but it doesn't look like 1733, maybe 1735? Can anyone provide some insight?

I'd say definitely 1735. This is what the 1733 date looks like:

I struggled with that date too in my collection until I was able to compare examples of both dates.

Also not helped by the 5/3s which leaves people wondering what the hell they've bought.

I have a rather nice 1736, 3 over 5. These are much harder to find.
