Comments
Żeton ten, pochodzący z firmy Rushbrooke's Family, Tea and Grocery Establishment w Willenhall, został wydany, aby zapłacić pracownikom Josua Rushbrookes i został zdemonetyzowany w 1862 roku. Rushbrooke Farthing stał się następnie pubem, jednak obecnie stoi pusty przy St Ann's Road z tabliczką opisującą jego historię.
