Reverse description A standing draped figure of Justice dominates the central field, facing slightly left, holding an upright sword in her right hand and a balance scale in her left, rendered in the neoclassical style typical of late 18th-century English token engraving. The figure stands on a small decorative base or exergual line, with the date 1794 appearing in the exergue below. The surrounding circumferential legend reads FOR CHANGE NOT FRAUD, affirming the token's commercial legitimacy and its intended role as small-change currency. A border of raised denticles frames the design.
