| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of George III facing right, occupying the central field, enclosed within a beaded border. The legend HALFPENNY TOKEN arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 1815 appears in the lower exergual area beneath the portrait. The effigy is rendered in a classic neoclassical style consistent with early nineteenth-century British colonial token coinage. |
