I apologise for the lack of technical expertise on this.

Click the image for a large size, I'll admit that its mine so don't be too hard!

PS - I was told by a major UK dealer that it would do at best 1k quid at auction....Not for sale, but I think that might be a bit low?

Well I would make a guess at £800 -£1100 very specialist item if two farthing collectors took a shine who knows .

Very rare and esp so in that grade , stunning as you say , one coin I would leave in a slab

Thanks Paulus. Got this off SNC many years ago. Don't recall seeing another 1869 proof farthing...

It really does inspire me.

I do have a few beauties and want more.

As PWA says, it is coins like this one that are truly inspiring and keep one in the hunt. That is natural colouring and know I was very lucky to get during the Halcyon days of Spink from the famous Spink Numismatic Circular...
