1673 FARTHING ( FINE )

This 1673 farthing is a notable example from the reign of King Charles II, a period of significant change in English coinage. Struck in copper, this small denomination coin served as essential currency for common transactions during the Restoration era. The fine condition indicates solid preservation of the monarch's portrait and reverse imagery, allowing clear examination of the die work characteristic of late 17th-century minting practices. Historically significant as a tangible artefact of Restoration-period commerce, this farthing offers collectors insight into the monetary systems that underpinned daily life in Stuart England.
