The structure is rendered with careful engraving characteristic of the better-quality provincial copper tokens of the early nineteenth century. The circular legend OVERSEERS OF THE POOR is arranged around the upper periphery, with the date 1813 appearing in the lower exergual area, the whole enclosed by a beaded border. |
