背面描述 The reverse is entirely text-based, with no figurative or symbolic devices. The field carries the legend THE ORIGINAL CASH STORE in three lines of bold raised Roman capitals, separated from the address below by a decorative rule with a central pellet. The lower portion of the field bears the address MAIN ST. STAWELL in two further lines. The whole is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a plain rim, consistent with the typographic style of Victorian Australian tradesman's halfpenny tokens.

附加信息

Crothers & Co. operated as a general merchant in Stawell, Victoria, during the 1860s token boom that emerged from chronic small-change shortages in the Australian colonies. The British government's reluctance to supply sufficient regal coinage to meet colonial demand created a vacuum that private traders filled with copper tokens — legally ambiguous but commercially essential. Stawell itself was a goldfields town, growing rapidly after alluvial finds in the Pleasant Creek area from 1853, which meant transactional volume far outpaced available currency.

Andrews #89 is a well-documented variety within the Victorian merchant token series.
