| 表面の説明 | A standing female figure, representing Justice or Britannia, is depicted facing left in the centre of the field, draped in classical robes and holding a balance scale in her outstretched left hand. Behind her, to the left, a ship under sail is visible in the middle ground, evoking the maritime commerce of colonial New South Wales. The figure stands on rocky ground, with additional symbolic elements in the field. The circumferential legend NEW SOUTH WALES runs around the upper portion of the coin within a beaded border that frames the entire design. |

Whitty & Brown operated as general merchants in Sydney during the mid-1850s, a period when the colonial government had utterly failed to supply sufficient small change for everyday retail trade. The gold rushes had pulled specie out of circulation and into the diggings, leaving shopkeepers across New South Wales to commission their own copper tokens from private diesinkers — often in London — simply to make transactions under a shilling possible.
The multiple die varieties catalogued under Andrews and Renniks reflect at least four distinct strikings, suggesting the firm reordered on more than one occasion.
