Reverse description A full-rigged three-masted sailing vessel under sail, depicted sailing to the right across a stylized sea, rendered in fine detail with furled and billowing sails, rigging, and hull clearly articulated. The ship occupies the majority of the central field, surrounded by a beaded border. The legend HALIFAX curves along the lower periphery beneath the vessel, identifying the colonial port city for which this token was issued.
