| 裏面の説明 | The reverse is entirely typographic, presenting the merchant's trade inscription in three lines across the central field, separated by two horizontal rules. The circular legend around the periphery reads MELBOURNE at the top and 11 LONSDALE St WEST along the lower arc, enclosing the central text. The merchant's name JNO. ANDREW & CO. appears prominently in the upper portion of the central field, with DRAPERS & C below it. The whole design is contained within a beaded border consistent with that of the obverse. |

John Andrew & Co. operated as a general merchant and ironmonger in Melbourne, and like many Victorian traders in the early 1860s, turned to privately issued copper tokens to address the chronic shortage of small change that plagued the colony. The British imperial penny arrived inconsistently and disappeared quickly into hoards; tradesmen who could afford the dies simply made their own. This piece was struck in Birmingham, almost certainly by the Heaton Mint, which supplied the bulk of Australian trade tokens during this period.
