On offer is a copper bronze Great Western Railway pay cheque issued for use at Cardiff Docks. These metal tokens were employed throughout the GWR network as part of the company’s wage distribution system, a practice common in major British railways during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This example is clearly stamped with the cheque number and GWR Cardiff markings, retaining a well-preserved patina.

The piece remains in good condition, showing authentic historic wear and strong legibility. Measuring approximately 37mm by 26mm, it is a characterful survivor of Britain’s railway heritage.
