Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Token 1 Penny (Bank Token) ND (1813) from Jersey (British Crown dependencies) made of Copper is that it was issued during a time when there was a severe shortage of official currency in Jersey, and private tokens like this one were used as a substitute for official coins.
