Talk:1/4 d

RFD discussion: September 2017–May 2018
A farthing. It's a quarter of a penny, hence 1/4 + d. Not really a lexical unit. Equinox ◑ 18:59, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * It would be like saying $0.01 is an abbreviation for penny. --WikiTiki89 19:42, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * As a matter of interest, what would be as a fraction? 1 d 1/4 or 1 1/4d? All the farthings had disappeared by the time I got to the UK. DonnanZ (talk) 20:32, 19 September 2017 (UTC)


 * 1 1/4d. See . Equinox ◑ 21:03, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Of course, same as with elevenpence ha'penny (11 1/2d). DonnanZ (talk) 22:36, 19 September 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm inclined to say keep this, but remove the space. But there is no corresponding entry for halfpenny 1/2d or 1/2 d though. DonnanZ (talk) 23:35, 19 September 2017 (UTC)


 * How do you see it as inherently different from, say, 9d for ninepence, or £3.27? Equinox ◑ 23:39, 19 September 2017 (UTC)


 * It's hard to know where to draw the line. There are entries for 1D, 1/d and 1-D, but not for 1d (old penny) or indeed 1p (new penny), nor for /- (shilling) or 21/- (guinea). Forget about £9.99 etc. DonnanZ (talk) 08:25, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * One solution would be to add abbreviations to say ninepence (9d) or elevenpence (11d) which should show up if anyone is looking for them. DonnanZ (talk) 08:43, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
