| Reverse description | The reverse mirrors the typographic style of the obverse, featuring a raised double-ring circular cartouche at centre enclosing the denomination ONE PENNY in bold raised Roman capitals arranged over two lines within the inner field. The peripheral legend BIRMINGHAM AND SWANSEA reads clockwise around the annular field in raised Latin capitals, with a small pellet stop at the base serving as a punctuation mark between the two place names. A finely executed beaded border frames the entire design at the rim, consistent with the milled token coinage of the Regency period. |
