The field is plain and the overall style is consistent with late 18th-century provincial token engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued under the wave of provincial copper tokens that flooded Britain in the 1790s when Royal Mint production of regal halfpennies failed catastrophically to meet commercial demand. York's civic and merchant interests filled the vacuum themselves. DH#70 is attributed to a specific York issuer within Dalton and Hamer's classification of the series, which runs to dozens of distinct Yorkshire varieties — the county was among the most prolific token-producing regions in England during this decade.
