W. Crooms (DH 14)
Obv: Shield of arms of the town of Dundee, DEI DONUM above, PRUDENTIA ET CANDORE below. PAYABLE AT W. CROOMS. HIGH STREET DUNDEE.
Rev: SELLS | WHOLESALE | WOOLEN & LINEN | DRAPERY GOODS | WATCHES &c &c | CHEAP.
Edge: Plain (rounded)
Notes:

R.C. Bell in Commercial Coins 1787-1804 claims that the reverse is spoilt because of the misspelling of the word WOOLLEN (only one L). Seems it's worked out okay. I checked several dictionaries and they all listed both spellings, with the majority listing WOOLEN as the more common.

Beautiful, mirrored, proof-like example.
