| 背面描述 | A stork standing upright atop a cornucopia, the horn's terminal end rendered with a notably pointed form; two foliate leaves spring from the cornucopia and curve to embrace the first limb of the letter H in the legend. A continuous Latin legend encircles the central device. The stork and cornucopia together symbolise provision and plenty, consistent with the commercial messaging of Conder token issuers of the period. |

The Birmingham Coining and Copper Company occupied a peculiar position in the 1790s provincial token trade: it was simultaneously a manufacturer of tokens for other issuers and an issuer in its own right. This self-referential piece — a token-maker advertising its own services on its own token — circulated during the acute small-change shortage that followed the Royal Mint's near-total neglect of copper coinage after 1775. Parliament had authorized no new regal copper for nearly two decades, leaving merchants and manufacturers to flood the country with private issues.
Dalton & Hamer 75 is among the more readily encountered of the firm's own issues, suggesting it saw genuine commercial distribution rather than serving purely as a trade specimen.
