| Obverse description | Central field features the arms of Kent — a prancing horse to sinister displayed within a heraldic shield, rendered in bold relief. The date 1794 appears above the shield, flanked by a decorative arc. The peripheral legend reads JUSTICE & CONFIDENCE THE BASIS OF TRADE, disposed around the full circumference and separated by a small floral ornament at the base. The coin exhibits a milled edge border and displays the characteristic style of late 18th-century English provincial token coinage. |
