Conder Tokens were issued in the late 18th century (by private merchants) as there was a shortage of government issued coins to pay workers (especially during the Industrial Revolution). The Royal Mint undertook a massive Recoinage Programme in 1816. It then became illegal for employers to pay employees with their privately minted tokens. Severe penalties included jail time.
