Comment
Peck-767Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Farthing - Anne ('Bello et Pace' Pattern) 1713 from United Kingdom is that it features a unique design on the reverse side, which depicts a crowned shield with the motto "Bello et Pace" (meaning "In War and Peace") surrounding it. This design was intended to symbolize the power and authority of Queen Anne, who ruled England, Scotland, and Ireland from 1707 until her death in 1714. The coin's design was never adopted for circulation, making it a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
