Charles I, Farthing (Rose) Fine

King Charles I ruled from 1625-1649 and was during his reign that the disastrous Civil War took place. The smallest coin struck during his tenure was the little copper Farthing. There were several different types issued, but the one on offer today is the ‘Rose’ Farthing. This has a crown on one side and a rose on the other. The coins are undated and a bit crudely struck, after all even then a Farthing wouldn’t buy you much. Although it was the cost for a small boat to take you across the Thames. The coins on offer while crude are still very collectable, and in Fine condition, which considering they are about 350 years old, is not too bad. It has been quite some time since we last had enough to run, get them while you can.

Picture of Edward VII, Penny 1902 Very Good

Edward VII, Penny 1902 Very Good

King Edward VII was the son of Queen Victoria and because she ruled for so long, his rule was rather short. In fact, the coins of Edward VII were only issued from 1902 to 1910, but that also means that all of his coins are over 100 years old. All coins are in Very Good condition with the details and the date clearly legible. Offered here is the 1902 penny. You have the bare head of the King on one side and a beautiful seated Britannia on the other side.
