== == A "penny farthing" is a kind of old-fashioned bicycle (see description below). If you're instead referring to the British coin, it's properly called simply a "farthing" and was worth 1/4* of an old pre-decimal penny.
The denomination was struck for centuries so you'd need to post more information in a new question - date and condition would be the most helpful things to provide.
(*) The word "farthing" comes from Old English for "(one-)fourth object"
If instead you have a Penny Farthing bicycle and you wish to know it's value, then I would suggest you would need to speak with a specialist in antique bicycles, such as: http://www.theoldbicycleshowroom.co.uk/.
Brand new Penny Farthings cost up to £500 in the UK, but are somewhat different to the originals with modern features for added comfort, and smaller front wheels (only about 3 ft, with a 1 ft diameter rear wheel).
There is also an annual Penny Farthing Championship held in Tasmania where the riders appear to be using new versions looking much similar to the originals (videos available on YouTube!) but I am afraid I do not know the value of these bicycles.
Penny Farthing Bicycle: Description The Penny Farthing is an early type of bicycle. It was named the Penny Farthing because it has one very large front wheel (often as much as 1.5 metres, or 5 feet in diameter) and one smaller wheel at the back. This made people think of an English penny, which at the time was very large, and another coin called a farthing, which was much smaller in relation to the penny.
There is a good description with pictures at this site:

There was no penny farthing coin. There was a farthing (a quarter of a penny) and a penny as separate coins. They were written as 1/4d and 1d on price labels - so if an item cost a penny farthing it would be written as 1.1/4d or 1-1/4d on there. There were 240 pennies in a pre-decimal pound (before 15 February 1971).
A Penny farthing is a bicycle and they were no longer made in 1915.
A Penny Farthing was a popular type of 19th century bicycle so named because of the disparate size of the front and back wheels which were likened to a Penny and a Farthing.
Both 1938 coins have the denomination clearly inscribed on them. Please decide on which coin you are interested in and submit a new question specifying the denomination and year.

The British Farthing, whether it was made from bronze or copper, was one quarter of a Penny. I do not believe that there was a US equivalent.
One US quart equates to about 946.074 mL.
25 US gallons equals 3.342 cubic feet.
A farthing was 1/4 of a penny.
