I picked this poor lady up today for a couple of bucks. She is long in the tooth and looking a little green. I wanted to post this first, then the reverse. Once it is scanned and up, I'd appreciate knowing a little more about it than it says on the coin

On reverse, the last A in NOVA and the S and O of SCOTIA all appear to be filled. Or is it PMD? Didn't look like it under the microscope. I could get some shots if necessary.

Thanks!

Even though she's a bit long in the tooth... she is well preserved. Anxious to see the flip side.

Sure looks like a 56. Here are 2 pages from Charlton about the token;

This is a really nice token. I actually collect these type of coins so I know how good this is. However, I am sort of unsure on some of the letters in "Nova Scotia" (S and O are not there. As well, there seems to look like in the picture to be a bit of damage on the left side of the cokin. Other than that, it is really good.
