| Obverse description | The obverse is entirely typographic, bearing no portrait or pictorial device. Within a beaded border, a circular legend reads IMPORTERS AND GENERAL MERCHANTS around the upper periphery, with WILLIAM BATEMAN JUN R. & Co. and WARNAMBOOL flanking the central field. The word VICTORIA appears prominently in the center of the field, with the date 1855 positioned at the base between two dot stops. The lettering is incuse-struck in a serif typeface consistent with mid-nineteenth-century colonial tradesmen's tokens. |
