Reverse description An allegorical female figure representing Commerce is depicted seated to the left upon what appears to be a bale of goods, extending an olive branch in her outstretched right hand. The circular legend TO FACILITATE TRADE arcs around the upper and right periphery, while the date 1825 appears in the exergue below the seated figure. The design conveys the commercial aspirations of the British colonial trade network. The field is plain, with the central device executed in a neoclassical engraving style.
