Description
Convict love token, crudely engraved on the obverse of a cartwheel penny, `Letty / Platt / H.B' entwined in a floral garland. Very fine.
No record of a woman convict named Letty (Leticia or Scarlett) Platt can be found, although interestingly the Powerhouse Museum Collection does contain an undated convict token with an engraving of a male convict with the initials H.B.
