| 背面描述 | A standing allegorical figure of Justice occupies the central field, draped in classical robes and facing left, holding a pair of scales in her raised right hand. A cornucopia rests at her feet to the right, and a sailing vessel is depicted on the water in the left background, evoking themes of trade and commerce. The legend AUSTRALIA arcs across the upper field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border, and the composition is rendered in a bold, engraved style typical of mid-nineteenth-century Australian tradesman's tokens. |

Iredale & Co. operated as a general merchant in colonial Sydney during the 1850s and 1860s, a period when the New South Wales government chronically failed to supply sufficient small-denomination coinage for everyday retail transactions. Private traders filled the gap by commissioning token pennies from British die-sinkers — primarily in Birmingham — which then circulated locally by informal community acceptance rather than any legal authority. Iredale's tokens are catalogued under at least six die varieties, reflecting either multiple ordering runs or deliberate experimentation with reverse types, which was not unusual among Sydney merchants hedging against token rejection.
