| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse presents a standing female figure, representing Britannia or an allegorical personification of England, depicted in classical drapery facing slightly to the left. Her right arm is raised with an open hand in a gesture of benediction or proclamation, while her left arm rests upon an anchor, a traditional symbol of hope and maritime commerce. The figure stands upon a ground line, with her flowing robes rendered in fine detail. The encircling legend PROSPERITY TO OLD ENGLAND. is distributed around the periphery in raised Latin letters, with a stop at the base, all within a dentilated border. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Richard Dinmore operated as a bookseller and printer in Norwich, and his halfpenny tokens were issued during the severe small-change shortage of the 1790s — a shortage so acute that private merchants across Britain were effectively forced to mint their own currency or halt retail trade entirely. The Conder token boom this produced was the largest private coinage episode in British history.
Dinmore's pieces were struck by an outside diesinker, as was common among provincial issuers who lacked minting facilities of their own.
