What coins or tokens are considered "John Law farthings", and why are they so classified (loosely I assume)? My main interest is in the coins/tokens that circulated in the colonies.

About the only thing that would qualify would be the french colonies 20 sols coins of 1720.  They weren't specifically associated with John Law but they were the only french coins issued for the colonies during the period of John Law's Mississippi Bubble of 1718 to 1720.
