For most coins of the past 100 years to be of any substantial value, they would have to be uncirculated and in mint condition. If they are "proof" coins, they would need to be in the original packaging and still in mint condition. Most coins of the past 100 years, if circulated, will get anything from a few pence to a few Pounds, depending on their condition and availability. Sixpences may be worth a bit because they were actually made from near pure silver prior to 1919. Since English Pennies and Farthings have been issued dating back hundreds of years, you should take them to a reputable coin dealer for appraisal, but prepare to be disappointed. Best wishes with your collection, I hope you get lucky.

A farthing was originally called a fourthing - The old English Penny was originally designed to be cut into four pieces in order to make change! Over the years, the word degraded into the modern spelling.AnswerActually, a farthing is a semantic shift of fourthing, from Old English feorðung, or fourth (quarter) of a penny. They were not cut into four, but minted as a coin with four to a penny (so a halfpenny, pronounced hay-penny, was worth two farthings).The confusion above may come about from pennies being cut into two or four, thus making halfpennies and farthings. They were used in Britain until 1960, at which time inflation had made them near valueless and a nuisance.

1955 isn't a rare year for British sixpence, worth a couple of cents as a curiosity regardless of the condition. If you've got one from a different country other than the UK, post a new question and include the country it came from.

It depends on what country/state you are talking about and also who was the ruler at the time. Each new monarch/pope of an area had coins minted with their face or insignia. New coins came out constantly. In Italy gold and silver were used in the form of crowns but in books from the time period there are references of pennies, shillings, farthings and even notes of credit; which were just pieces of paper endorsed by a official. There are mentions of the doubloon also.
