| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a standing allegorical figure of Justice, blindfolded and facing left, holding a balance scale in her right hand. In the background, a sailing ship is shown underway to the left, evoking Australia's maritime trade connections. The word AUSTRALIA appears as a legend around the upper periphery of the field, with a beaded border encircling the entire design. The composition is characteristic of the Australian tradesman's token series of the 1850s gold rush era, combining civic allegory with commercial advertisement. |
