Graded as a RB, but this coin looks super close to a full red! Top gem grade with tons of luster.
The Crichel House Cache was a hoard of thousands of mint state farthings that were found at Crichel House, a stately mansion. These farthings were the result of a bet between two friends for £5 on which raindro would reach the bottom of the window first. The loser was so sore about his loss that he went to the bank and withdrew the entire amount in farthings - the smallest denomination possible. The remained wrapped in tissue paper for about a century before the family discovered and sold them at auction. Photos of Crichel House where the coins were found are from the original Daily Mail UK article.
