| Obverse description | Plain copper field bearing the proprietor's name 'R. GRATTAN' in large incuse capital letters across the centre, with the establishment name 'THAMES HOTEL' arching along the upper periphery and 'AUCKLAND' curving along the lower periphery, all in raised Latin lettering. The legend is separated from the milled border by a continuous inner beaded circle, giving the design a clean, typographic character typical of colonial New Zealand tradesman's tokens produced by W.J. Taylor of London. |
