I was going through a drawer and found this very worn 1820 token brass. Counter stamped Devins and Bolton Montreal any info
https://www.coinsandcanada.com/toke...ton,-victoria,-advertising-token,-1867&id=355 The token illustrated is an advertising piece issued by Devins & Bolton, a firm of Montreal druggists. Richard John Devins was born in Montreal in 1837. Although he studied medicine at McGill University, he did not enter practice but rather devoted himself to the study of chemistry and medicine. After serving his apprenticeship with a druggist in Montreal, Devins worked with the firm of Lanman and Kemp in New York. He established his own business in Montreal in 1861 and went into partnership with a Mr. Bolton two years later. Recognizing the value of advertising, Devins and Bolton culled from circulation vast quantities of copper and brass tokens as well as semi-official halfpennies and foreign copper tokens and coins, and then had them stamped "Devins & Bolton Montreal."
