![Who is it that has not heard of the celebrated Tullamoore Shilling – a copper token, about the size of a penny, issued in 1802, by the late Earl of Charleville [died 1835] for payment of the workmen then engaged in erecting Charleville Castle. It bears on one side the Charleville Arms, within “Charleville Forest” and “Industry shall prosper, 1802.” On the reverse it is inscribed, “One Shilling and on Penny”, payable at Tullamoore first Tuesday in each month.” [Thomas Cooke, 1846]](https://www.offalyexpress.ie/jpim-static/image/2026/05/29/9/42/Charleville-token-1802-(2)-Copy.jpeg?trim=0,345,0,345&crop=&quality=70&width=168)
