| Beschrijving voorzijde | A standing Maori warrior in traditional dress is depicted at centre, positioned beside a tree fern; a kiwi and a canoe appear in the foreground, with a mountain range in the background. The legend NEW ZEALAND runs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering. The composition reflects a romanticised colonial-era representation of New Zealand's indigenous and natural heritage, executed in low relief typical of mid-nineteenth century trade token engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Milner & Thompson operated as grocers and provision merchants in Christchurch, New Zealand, issuing tradesman's tokens during the 1860s when the colonial copper coinage supply from Britain was chronically inadequate for everyday transactions. The "Small Series" designation distinguishes these pieces from the firm's earlier, heavier issues — a practical response to shifting commercial needs rather than any official directive. Andrews 383 is notably scarcer than its larger counterpart, with surviving examples disproportionately concentrated in institutional collections rather than the open market.
