Here are five British farthings stretching in date between 1826 (reign of George IV) and 1955 (reign of Queen Elizabeth). Shown is the reverse of each coin, which includes the date. The wren, one of Britain's smallest birds, replaced the figure of Britannia on coins from 1936 until the last farthing was minted, twenty years later. Farthings ceased to be legal tender in Britain after 1960. The George IV farthing (bottom right) is made of copper, while the later ones are bronze. Small change is always referred to as 'coppers', though. A farthing was worth a quarter (a fourth) of a penny, and the name derives from 'fourthing'.
