| Obverse description | The plain central field bears the word PROVISION in curved lettering, serving as the principal device in lieu of a figural motif. The merchant's trade legend ARCHD. ANDERSON'S PROVISION * WARE-HOUSE * runs continuously around the border in raised Latin capitals. The entire design is framed by a toothed or milled border of fine beading. The typographic composition is characteristic of late 18th-century British provincial trade tokens, emphasising commercial identity over decorative imagery. |
