I might not be the best person to answer your question, but I would use 5 for the F, 3 for the C, 2 for the D-flat, and 1 for the A-flat.
It all happens on Discworld, where greed and ignorance influence human behavior... and perfectly ordinary people occasionally act like raving idiots.

I use 5 in the bass, and finger 3 of the left hand to play both the C and the Db. 1 goes on top.
