| Reverse description | Entirely typographic design with no central pictorial device. The peripheral legend reading around the beaded border carries the business address and location: 11 COLLINS ST. EAST and MELBOURNE, separated by dot stops. The central field displays the date of issue in two lines: MAY 1ST 1855, with the ordinal superscript rendered in smaller letters. The overall layout is consistent with the trade token conventions of colonial Victoria. |
