| Obverse description | The obverse field is occupied entirely by a multi-line commercial inscription arranged concentrically and centrally across the coin face, reading WHOLESALE AND RETAIL BAKERS CONFECTIONERS AND GROCERS in bold raised lettering. The text fills the field in stepped horizontal lines, giving the token a purely typographic design with no pictorial device. The legend is enclosed within a beaded border running along the coin's full circumference. |

| Reverse description | The reverse bears a right-facing bust of a Māori warrior depicted in profile, shown with traditional facial features and a draped cloak about the shoulders. The figure displays characteristic indigenous styling, including a headdress or hair arrangement consistent with Māori artistic convention. The circular legend ONE PENNY TOKEN runs along the periphery of the coin, flanking the bust, with the inscription divided across both sides of the effigy. A beaded border encloses the entire design. |
