This copper one penny token, was minted by W.J. Taylor, London. Issued by Stewart & Hemmant, Drapers, Brisbane & Rockhampton, circa 1863. It has some age and patina as you would expect from an antique token.
William Hemmant and Alexander Stewart established their drapery business in Queen Street, Brisbane, in 1860. The store was burned to the ground in 1864, one of many businesses destroyed by a disastrous fire, although it was subsequently rebuilt.
In 1862, Stewart and Hemmant opened a business in Rockhampton which was run by James Stewart, Alexander’s twin brother. In 1868 James Stewart bought out Hemmant’s interest in the business in 1868, and took Edward Seymour Lucas, his chief assistant since 1863, into partnership.
