Reverse description The reverse features a standing allegorical figure of Justice, blindfolded and robed, facing left, holding a pair of scales in her right hand. Behind her, a sailing ship is depicted underway to the left in the mid-field, evoking themes of commerce and colonial trade. The peripheral legend reads AUSTRALIA in raised capitals, enclosed within a beaded border that matches the obverse. The design is characteristic of the standardised reverse dies employed across numerous Australian colonial tradesman's tokens of the 1850s.
