<p>[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 11882372, member: 10461"]Of course this was a full penny. A silver <i>half</i>penny was a pretty small thing back then (and I don't think any were even made until later, with the copper halfpenny even centuries later still). And I guess the only way you had a farthing back when this coin was circulating would be to cut a penny into quarters, as often happened. The long cross provided useful lines to cut along.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
