[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2952457, member: 10461"]The first is [URL='https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/great-britain-farthing-km-677-1821-i823-cuid-1208113-duid-1334236']KM#677[/URL], which is an earlier type struck in 1821-1826. The second is [URL='https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/great-britain-farthing-km-697-1826-1831-cuid-1171657-duid-1322264']KM#697[/URL], which was struck 1826-1831. So it seems to me that 1826 must have been the transitional year, with the first type struck in the earlier portion of the year and the second type struck later in 1826. To use an imperfect analogy, this would be akin to the situation with US cents in 1909, when we had Indian Head cents for the first portion of the year and Lincoln cents in the latter portion.[/QUOTE]
