<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Detecto92, post: 1751174, member: 75105&quot;]Now here is another interesting find. The farthings minted from 1897 to 1917 were artificially darkened because people were passing them off as half sovereigns. However, the half sovereign was a different design, and of course gold in color. Also, the farthing clearly bears the denomination &quot;farthing&quot;. So did people gold plate farthings and pass them off as half sovereigns?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
