    Nice, thanks for sharing, your Nova Scotia token looks like an E2 variety. Medium "O"
    $30ish?

    And your Upper Canada One cent token is a Large 2. Is your coin upright on both sides? Or is one side flipped upside down?

    I have one like your but mine is an 1852 and I have a larger one that's an 1857. I'll put them up later. This is the last one I got from Canada on ebay for $20 and change. One of my favs. It was listed as a Breton but I don't really know, I just liked it.

    Very nice tokens guys.

    Well, the pics aren't that good as usual but I got em both. One's a penny and the other is a half penny, both Canadian and very old. The bigger one is in better condition and my guess is the most rare of the two, if there is such a thing with these common tokens from Canada. I paid around $12 for the one penny one and it was mailed to me from England, that was different. Someday I will take my time and get pics of everything.

    Oh that Rutherford up there is super cool!!

    Cool, that means it was minted in Heaton, as opposed to the RCM.

    One of my favorites Hiho, is it a medal or coinage axis?
