Farthings & Fractional Farthings

Third Farthing

These, although official British coinage, were issued for use in Malta.

`1844`	AUNC lus	Large G in REG – (Very RARE)	£122.50
`1878`	GEF/AUNC	Trace of Lustre	£29.50
1902	VF		£5.75

Notes- In 1844 the third farthings were produced with the G of REG on the obverse, missing. A second issue of 'corrected' coins was issued BUT these had the wrong sized G, a larger one that should have been used on the half-farthings. A third issue was produced with the fault corrected. The second issue, large G, is normally considered to be the scarcest of the three.

Half Farthing

These coins, although official British coinage, were produced for use in Ceylon.
