I have a coin that appears to look just like the UK Farthing of 1895 to 1900, but the coin is only 1.33cm in diameter and weighs only 0.55 grams. I am not sure if its a fake or a token as it appears to be too small to use as currency.

Hi ZacUK,
It looks like a similar type of coin, but this one is slightly different. Do you know if it exists on Numista?

That does not look like a genuine coin. The name under the britanna on the reverse lauer? Could be the copy maker? The legend on the obverse is totally wrong as well.
