An issue of silver tokens has been made by Messrs. Cattle and Barber of York. These tokens are of the value of Shillings and Sixpences, and are finished in a neat style, bearing on one side the arms of York, and on the other, their value, with the names of the issuers.- Chronicle, Oct. 12, 1811.
Robert Cattle started as an apprentice silversmith and later took on James Barber as a partner in his thriving goldsmiths and jewellers business on Coney Street, York.
Obverse and reverse varieties exist.
