Modern copper alloy token. The token is oval in plan. In the centre of the token is a large number '5/' (five shillings). Around the perimeter, in capital letters arranged in two concentric rings are the words: [WELLS &] WOOKEY HOLE COOPERATIVE and on the inner [INDUSTRIAL &] PROVIDENTIAL [SOCY LIMITED] The reverse is plain.
