I just did an eBay search for these. A recent one sold for $4.75 plus shipping http://cgi.ebay.com/1840-Nova-Scoti...ltDomain_0&hash=item20b1e29f50#ht_2337wt_1009 My guess is yours is worth around the same amount. Other ones are for more expensive buy it now prices but they are nicer condition.
Yes, around $3 to $7 is typical of the numerous tokens (mostly bank tokens) issued in Canada around this time. Really neat, historic coins for the price! ACE Mike
just sharing. Its been laying around for years and i almost forgot about it. lol I believe it is G-VG with weak rim strike. probably not that it matters, i dont think there is a high demands for these coins anywhere.
Typically with common coins in low grades there isn't much of a price difference in the lower grades. Even though the coin in the auction looks better than yours, if you went to sell yours you might get a similar amount.
I dont see how the one in the auction is better than mine, it has spots on it and that takes away appeal.
