Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Token 1 Farthing (George Rules - Britannias Isles) ND (1760-1797) from United Kingdom is that it was made of copper, which was a common material used for coinage during that time period. Copper was chosen for its durability and affordability, as it was a relatively inexpensive metal compared to other options like gold or silver. Despite its humble material, the coin still holds significant historical value and is a sought-after collector's item today.
