1829 FARTHING ( GF )

Regular price $18.00

A scarce farthing from the reign of King George IV, minted in 1829. This copper coin represents a fascinating piece of British numismatic history from the final years before the Great Recoinage of 1831. The farthing, worth one quarter of a penny, was an essential denomination for everyday transactions in early 19th-century Britain. This example is graded as Good Fine (GF), indicating clear details and moderate wear consistent with circulation. The obverse displays the monarch's profile, while the reverse features Britannia seated with shield and trident—iconic imagery of British coinage from this era. A desirable addition to any collection of Georgian coins or British currency history.
