| Reverse description | The reverse bears the merchant's trade inscription arranged across the central field in three lines reading WHOLESALE / GROCER / AUCKLAND, framed within a beaded inner border. The curved legend CHARLES C. BARLEY arcs along the upper periphery, while NEW ZEALAND appears along the lower periphery, both separated by small ornamental stops. The overall design is typographic with no pictorial elements, characteristic of mid-nineteenth century colonial trade tokens produced for merchant advertising purposes. |
