Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Token 1 Farthing (Glorious Duncan - Britannias Isles) ND (1751-1797) from United Kingdom (United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies) made of Copper is that it was issued during a time when there was a severe shortage of small denomination coins in circulation, leading to the use of private tokens like this one as a substitute for official currency.
