The 1839 Quarter Farthing is a coin struck in copper by the Royal Mint for use in Ceylon. The obverse features an uncrowned portrait of Queen Victoria facing left with legend around, this early image of Queen Victoria is often referred to as the young head design. The reverse has a central crowned denomination with the date underneath. There is a rose, thistle and shamrock below the date.

The quarter farthing fractional coins were all originally issued for use in Ceylon and were never intended to be legal tender in the UK. The Royal Mint issued quarter farthings in 1839, 1851, 1852, and 1853, and also produced bronze proofs in 1868. The coins are considered rare and difficult to find.

This 1839 copper coin had a mintage figure of 3,840,000.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Dorset Coin Company with a collection of approximately 100 antique coins and some bullion, and I couldn't be more impressed with the experience. From the moment I met Terry, it was clear that I was in the presence of an expert numismatist who is not only extremely knowledgeable but also incredibly passionate about his craft.

The time I spent there—around two hours—felt like it flew by, largely because Terry made the entire process so engaging and informative. His enthusiasm for coins is contagious, and he made me feel at ease right from the start. This, combined with his deep expertise, gave me complete confidence that the valuation I received was both accurate and fair.

With this trust in mind, I had no hesitation in selling the collection to Terry. The entire experience was seamless, and I left feeling very satisfied with my decision. I can't recommend Terry and the team at Dorset Coin Company highly enough. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate expert in the world of coins, look no further. This is the place to go!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very happy with Dorset Coin Co.  They were communicative, helpful and polite, and they did what they said they would do.  They offered advice as to how to maximise the cash for a small collection of commemorative coins, and when the banks were not going to cooperate, they paid cash in line with what they had avised.  Tidied up a loose end for me and for a family estate.  Thanks guys!
