| Reverse description | Central field depicts a standing draped female figure, facing slightly left, holding a balance scale in her raised right hand and a long sceptre or staff in her left, emblematic of Commerce or Justice. At her feet to the left lie various tools and implements associated with ironworking and industry, while a barrel or cask is positioned to her right, symbolising trade. The legend ONE PENNY TOKEN arcs around the upper field, divided by the figure, and the date 1813 appears in the lower exergue beneath a horizontal baseline. The composition is executed in a neoclassical style consistent with early 19th-century British trade token engraving. |
