正面描述 A three-masted sailing vessel under full sail, depicted in profile moving to the right, occupies the central field. The legend LIVERPOOL HALFPENNY arcs above the ship along the periphery, while a decorative wreath is positioned below in the exergue area. The design is rendered in a clean, neoclassical engraving style typical of the Conder token series.

附加信息

Issued during the height of the British provincial token boom, this piece circulated as a practical substitute for the chronic shortage of regal copper coinage that plagued commerce throughout the 1790s. The Royal Mint's near-total neglect of small denomination production since the 1770s forced merchants, industrialists, and municipalities across Lancashire and beyond to commission their own tokens — hundreds of types appeared within just a few years.

The "Duke of Lancaster" title referenced in the type belongs by tradition to the reigning monarch, a duchy designation the Crown has held since Henry IV. Dalton & Hamer's cataloguing of this piece as DH#114 places it firmly within the documented Lancashire series.
