| Aanvullende informatie |
W.J. Taylor was a London-based diesinker and medallist who produced a substantial run of Australian trade tokens during the late 1850s and early 1860s, largely filling a chronic small-change shortage that the colonial authorities had failed to remedy. The "Advance Australia" pieces are among the more politically charged of his output — the phrase itself was a rallying slogan of the colonial nationalist movement gaining momentum precisely as these tokens circulated.
Taylor retained the dies in London, which allowed restrikes to be made for collectors well after the tokens' commercial usefulness had passed. Distinguishing original strikes from later restrikes is the central authentication problem with this type.
