| Reverse description | The reverse is entirely typographic, bearing no pictorial devices. The merchant's trade inscription is arranged across multiple lines in the central field, reading DRAPER AND CLOTHIER ADELAIDE, with the proprietor's name ALFRED TAYLOR and the address 31 RUNDLE STREET distributed around the peripheral legend, all within a beaded border. The bold serif lettering is characteristic of mid-Victorian commercial token design, serving a purely advertising function. |
