Norwich in the 1790s was thick with tradesmen issuing their own copper tokens to plug the chronic shortage of regal small change — the Royal Mint had effectively abandoned the halfpenny for over a decade by 1794. R. Campin, operating as a haberdasher in the city, was one of dozens of provincial merchants who turned to the Anglesey-pioneered token trade as a practical solution. DH#21 places this piece firmly within the Dalton & Hamer Norfolk sequence, a county that generated an unusually dense concentration of documented tradesman issues relative to its population.
