Celibrating tonight having just completed the 1st complete run in my collection. Just got hold of a 1953 2+A which completes my run of 1900- 1953 Farthings. That excludes proofs other than 1937, 1950, 1951 and both 1953s

F-530, not many of them about. The best I can do is an F-593A

Yes, not the greatest with that ding but hay it's the 1st one I've seen and I've been looking for a year now. I think I may have a spare 1915 if it is one when it arrives. That is the trouble trying to buy types off the bay sometimes even good picture mislead. The good thing about the bay though is that 99.9% of seller aren't aware of types so you can get a bargain. I picked up a 1953 2+A proof Farthing for about $2.50. Tha last one I heard of selling here in the UK went for £80.

Probably 1899 and backwards
