Beschrijving voorzijde Central field depicts Saint George, helmeted and cloaked, mounted on a rearing horse and thrusting a lance downward into a writhing dragon beneath the horse's hooves, rendered in high relief in the tradition of the Benedetto Pistrucci sovereign design. The scene is set on a ground line in the lower field, with the date 1857 positioned below, flanked by two small six-pointed star ornaments. The circular legend BANK OF UPPER CANADA arcs along the upper periphery, separated from the toothed border by a fine rim.

Beschrijving keerzijde Central field displays the arms of Upper Canada: a large imperial crown at the top centre, beneath which cross a diagonal anchor and a crossed key and sceptre, all overlying a ribbon or scroll in the lower field. Flanking the central devices are two crowned cornucopiae, one at lower left and one at lower right, each surmounted by a small crown and issuing foliage, representing the horns of plenty associated with the province's heraldic tradition. In the upper right quadrant, a stepped triangular geometric element — representing a portion of the shield — is visible. The circular legend arcs along the periphery in two parts: BANK TOKEN along the upper arc and ONE HALF-PENNY along the lower arc, separated by small star ornaments, all within a toothed border.
