Beschrijving voorzijde Central device depicts an open scroll or promissory document surmounted by a perched bird, rendered in relief against a plain field. The scroll bears a multi-line inscription serving as the token's promise-to-pay legend. The place name BUNGAY arcs along the upper periphery within a milled border, while the date 1795 appears in the lower exergue. The overall composition is emblematic of the late 18th-century British trade token tradition, combining commercial text with a symbolic vignette.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a standing allegorical figure of Justice, robed and posed upon a square pedestal, holding a raised sword in her right hand and a balanced scale in her left.

The circular legend FOR THE USE OF TRADE. runs along the upper periphery within a continuous milled border. The design is executed in a clean neoclassical style characteristic of Conder token engraving of the 1790s.
