Question 4: In for a penny...
correct
That's right, the answer is ‘Sixty farthings’.
A farthing was a quarter of a penny, so 60 farthings would be 15 pennies. The other options are all worth exactly 30. There were four pennies in a groat, twelve pennies in a shilling, and sixty pennies (five shillings) in a crown.
