A Penny Farthing was a 19th Century bicycle invented in 1871 by British engineer, James Starley.
A Penny and a Farthing are both coins from the now redundant British predecimal currency system.
The Penny Farthing bicycle was so named for the contrast of the size of the front and back wheels which were likened to a Penny and a Farthing.
A "Penny Farthing" is not a coin, it was a very popular 19th Century bicycle invented in 1871 by British engineer, James Starley. It was called a "Penny Farthing" because of the disparate size of the two wheels, which were likened to a "Penny" and a "Farthing". There were Penny coins and Farthing coins, with four Farthings (Fourthings) to the Penny. Make up your mind which coin you have and resubmit your question.
The smallest denomination used to be the farthing, which was worth 1/4 of one penny.
None. There were four Farthings in a Penny. A Farthing was one quarter of a Penny.
These coins are part of the now long redundant British predecimal currency. Values from least to most are - A Farthing is one quarter of a Penny A Halfpenny is one half of a Penny One Shilling is worth 12 Pence (or 12 Pennies) A Florin is worth 2 Shillings (or 24 Pence) A Crown is worth 5 Shillings (or 60 Pence)
A 1944 farthing* in average condition sells for less than a dollar. (*) Note : A "penny farthing" is a type of bicycle. A farthing is 1/4 of a penny, so the terms do not go together (e.g. you would not say "a dime quarter")
No. A farthing was a small British copper or bronze coin valued at one quarter of a Penny. A Shilling was a silver coin equal to 12 Pence.
To a numismatist, FAIR condition describes a coin that is so worn you can barely determine the type and date, so if it is really in this condition, it is worth nothing. If it is in a bit better condition, it still has no significant value and may even be found in a dealer's "junk box" for 25 cents.
Question doesn't make sense. A penny farthing is an old kind of bicycle with a big front wheel and a small rear wheel. By 1947 they were too old to be useful but not old enough to be interesting. Scrap value. Pennies and farthings were coins. They have separate values.
In some countries, there are coins with values lower than a penny, such as the half-cent in the United States, which is no longer in circulation. Additionally, some currencies have coins worth even less than a penny, like the Japanese yen's 1 yen coin.
A Penny Farthing was a popular 19th Century bicycle. Australia never produced a Farthing coin, and I have no idea what a pennyfarthington is.
It was a small coin, either copper or bronze, that was valued at one fourth of a penny.
A British 1910 bronze Farthing (Edward VII), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £35 GBP. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch anything from £2 to £12 GBP. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.
