3rd group of Canadian tokens (dialuppers beware)

gummibear

Here are the rest of my early Canadian tokens. Hope you enjoy them. A few nice. A couple fairly rare and some holey ones.
Does PCGS grade any of these tokens? If not who does on the ones that are worth grading?
Thanks,
Richard

Cool bunch! Do you know what the completely worn-out one is?

That one is a brass blacksmith token. I amnot positive which one yet. It is a tough one to be sure on. They didn't start much better than the condition it is in now.

The third one isn't a token, it is a Nova Scotia one cent coin. I don't think any are worth sending to PCGS. Maybe the 1856 N.S. one penny token.

I agree with Ajaan

Do you know what the one just above the worn out token mentioned is?

It has "Hero of UPr Canada" visible on it, I'd like to know who that was referring to.

Also the 1856 Nova Scotia Penny token is very nice.

Hi,
the legend is "Sr Isaac Brock The Hero of Upr Canada" in the center is says "Fell Oct 13 1812"

Thanks for the reply - I thought the hero would be from the war of 1812.
Here's a good read on Brock

i also agree with ajaan

that nova scotia one cent is really nice

it it less of a token than the rest too. Usually descibed as semi-regal. The colonies were not permitted to strike and issue coins but they managed to release some before Confederation.
