| Obverse description | Central field features a decorative arrangement of four floral and botanical emblems representing the British Isles: a rose (England), a thistle (Scotland), a shamrock (Ireland), and an oak sprig (likely Wales or general British symbolism), all rendered in relief within a raised inner circle. The surrounding legend reads BAKERY & GROCERY * 9 FREDRICK ST PORT of SPAIN *, separated by star stops, and is bordered by a continuous beaded outer rim. The design evokes a British commercial token aesthetic typical of mid-nineteenth century merchant trade coinage. |
