Britannia Coin Coins Copper Farthing Farthings Penny Quarter Reverse

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare and historic British coin, specifically an Edward VII farthing from the year 1909. The farthing, a coin worth a quarter of a penny, features the regal image of King Edward VII on the obverse side, while the reverse side showcases the iconic figure of Britannia. King Edward VII, who reigned from 1901 until his death in 1910, was the first monarch of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to ascend to the British throne. This coin, made of copper, represents the Edwardian era, a period marked by opulence, grandeur, and the height of the British Empire. The image of Britannia, a symbol of Britain's strength and maritime power, has been a consistent feature on British coins since Roman times. This farthing, with its intricate design and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Britain during the early 20th century.
