Hi there.

ot sure if you were asking in jest. A penny was an old very large English coin and a farthing was 1/4 of a penny and much smaller. Penny-farthing bicycles are the very old bicycles you see images of that had a very large front wheel (penny) and a much smaller tail wheel (farthing).

Cheers from Peter
