1 Farthing - Anne Pattern

Pattern farthings in gold were struck not for circulation but as presentation pieces — most likely intended as cabinet specimens for courtiers or senior officials close to the Queen. Anne died the following year, in August 1714, making 1713 one of the last windows in which the Royal Mint produced work under her authority. Gold patterns from this reign survive in very small numbers, and the KM#PnB34 designation covers a tightly defined group rather than a broad type.
