Copper token issued by Wine and Spirit Merchant Robert McCulla of Armagh. The words "Payable at the Sign of the Clock”, are inscribed on the reverse. In 1847 McCulla ended his business partnership with William Ferris and until his death in 1857 traded under his new Clock trademark. The Sign of the Clock continued until in 1902 an extensive fire in Market street burnt his shop and destroyed McCulla’s famous clock. However The Clock Bar catered for thirsty customers from the same location until at least the 1960s. Donors: Mr. W. T. Ferris & Mr. J. Archer. (119.1968)

This is a wonderful old token carved into an old coin. Around the rim is carved "When This I See I Think Of Thee And Ever More Will Constant Be".
