Description: | Tokens such as this were given to workers picking fruit on
farms. At the end of the day the tokens would be counted and the
farmer would pay the worker the equivalent amount in cash. This
token was issued by J Griffin of Farnborough and was worth three
old pence.
The token formed part of a hoard found by the
donor's husband whilst he was fishing. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Bromley Museum | Rights holder: | Bromley Museum Service | Subjects: | work | Source: | Bromley Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
