| Aanvullende informatie |
The 1/3 Farthing was struck exclusively for circulation in Malta, where the local monetary system required a coin equivalent to one grain — a denomination with no practical use in Britain itself. George IV's government authorized the issue to facilitate small transactions in the island colony, where existing British fractions didn't map cleanly onto local pricing conventions. The 1827 date is the only year this denomination was struck for George IV, with mintage figures modest enough that circulated survivors in decent condition are genuinely scarce.
