Hey,
I don't understand why nobody has wrote anything here for now?
Wow that silver looks old, how big is it and how old?
This info is always fun to know

 

[Silver Searcher]

Now there is something you don't see that often, half pennies of this reign are very rare, farthings are rocking horse $hit rare. Great find

That is cool. I'm certain I'll never find one myself. Closest I can get is a Farting of Damon II.

 

[ANTIQUARIAN]

Very nice find!
Personally, I'd polish it until I could see my reflection in it!

Just kidding mate . . . congrats,
Dave

Probably could, & if it were a member find, it's a banner no-brainer.

it measures about 12 mm across and it is as thin as a piece of paper and it weighs less than 2 grammes and i think it is a mule the reverse reads avid scotter the obverse reads moneta regis d i think the price has just gone though the roof its an unknown coin

Ed...is it definitely a farthing or halfpenny, 12mm sound quite large for a farthing

Edit...just checked, it is a farthing, a halfpenny is 15mm, no recordings on UKFD, this must be very Rare
