Reverse description The reverse is similarly devoid of pictorial imagery, relying entirely on inscribed text. The denomination HALF PENNY is displayed in two lines of bold raised capital letters at the centre of the field. The surrounding peripheral legend reads O.H. HEDBERG + SWEDISH HOUSE HOBART TON +, encircling the field and identifying the issuer's commercial establishment. The rim carries a uniform beaded border matching the obverse, typical of privately produced colonial trade tokens of mid-nineteenth-century Tasmania.
