| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design depicting a single-masted medieval round ship, shown in profile sailing left with a square-rigged sail set, enclosed within a rope border circle in the inner field. The vessel is rendered in an archaic style evoking early English maritime iconography. The peripheral legend ISLE OF WIGHT HALFPENNY 1792 encircles the central device, with the date incorporated as part of the legend in the lower portion of the coin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued under the Conder token boom of the early 1790s, when chronic Royal Mint neglect had left Britain without a functioning small-change supply for decades. Merchants, manufacturers, and speculators rushed to fill the void with privately struck copper tokens, and Hampshire was among the most active producing counties. Wilkins was a London die-sinker who supplied token designs commercially — the same engraver furnished dies to multiple issuers across several counties simultaneously.
DH#46 per Dalton and Hamer's exhaustive 1910 catalogue, which remains the standard reference for the series.
