| Reverse description | The reverse bears an entirely typographic design with no central pictorial device. The merchant's name and business details are rendered in bold raised Roman lettering arranged in horizontal lines across the field: ALFRED NICHOLAS arching along the upper border, followed by LIVERPOOL / TEA WAREHOUSE / LIVERPOOL ST / HOBART TOWN in successive registers toward the lower periphery. The coin is enclosed within a toothed milled border typical of mid-nineteenth-century Australian tradesman's tokens. |
