| Reverse description | Neptune, crowned and robed, seated in a shell-form sea chariot and holding an upright trident in his right hand, drawn across turbulent waves by two sea-horses moving to the left. The chariot is elaborately decorated with scrollwork and a wheel visible at the rear. The circular legend BARBADOES•PENNY arcs across the upper field, while the date 1792 appears in the exergue below a horizontal baseline, all rendered in a fine neoclassical engraving style consistent with late 18th-century British token coinage. |
