Description:
Farthing.
One of Spence's political tokens. This one is a parody of another token that calls Pitt and Fox 'Odd Fellows'. I'm not certain of the meaning of the reverse, probably a reference to the need for keeping quiet in a time of government repression of free speech. Struck on an irregular planchet.
