A few new additions to "Stubby's $20-or-less Farthing Collection"

StubbyMcNumbthumbs

I know they're not minty, slabbed or pedigreed, but they fit nicely in "Stubby's $20-or-less Farthing Collection". Enjoy!
(Oh, and my self-imposed rule is $20 Australian including any and all shipping costs.)

1699 William III - Date in Legend variety (arrived today!) Notice the die centering dot on the obverse.


1730 George II


1731 George II


1736 George II - Wide Date


1749 George II


1775 George III - I think this may be a contemporary copy, due to the thin flan. Can anyone offer an opinion on this? Thanks!


Thanks for stopping by.

Really nice! The 1730 is my favorite, with the 1699 a close second. Under $20? Way cool.

The "7s" look amiss, but a very good contemp. copy, if so.


Here's a pictorial reference site for whomever.

That's what I was thinking. The 7's are usually more slanted. These look too good. Also, the letter "s" at the end of Georgius is a bit amateurish.

Yes, Colin's web site is visited frequently for reference. An excellent site and a nice person to deal with!
