| Aanvullende informatie |
Burton-on-Trent's brewing trade was the engine behind most local commerce in the early nineteenth century, and tradesmen's tokens like this Pardoe piece emerged directly from the chronic shortage of regal copper coinage that plagued provincial England after the halt of official penny production in 1807. The Royal Mint simply stopped, and market towns filled the gap themselves. Pardoe's token circulated among the tallow chandlers, maltsters, and coopers who kept the Burton economy moving between official reissues.
The Withers and Davis references both place this piece firmly within the documented Burton series — Davis 75 being the standard citation for Staffordshire provincial copper scholarship.
