<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 35371, member: 283&quot;]Quoting Charlton `Canadian Colonial Tokens&#039;&nbsp; in relation specifically to Nova Scotia (I have 2nd edition, 1990, so it&#039;s maybe a tad out of date by now) &quot;The Seated Commerce issues of 1812 and 1813 were designed by Thomas Halliday and struck over the existing tokens of Samuel Guppy of Bristol&quot;. The 1d Trade an Navigation token you descrbe is NS20A. There are varieties.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Cuidad Rodrigo&nbsp; token is described by Charlton as a`Peninsular Token&#039; and&nbsp; &quot;originally struck for the use of Wellington&#039;s army in Portugal and Spain. Specimen&#039;s were brought over to Canada by trooops sent over to fight the American&#039;s in 1814.&quot;&nbsp; There are numerous varieties.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll see what (if anything) I can do with the others you have. It might take me some time however. It is worthwhile your trying to get hold of the book I mentioned though.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
