I have this token

What I found is this is supposedly from Canada...
Around 1813 because I found one that looks the same but year 1813 has the year marked instead of the leafs

From the pics, I think it would be a Lower Canada undated halfpenny w/ spear instead of trident. Breton # 972. I found it in J A Haxby's 2012 Coins of Canada. It says that they were produced by Thomas Halliday of Birmingham, and worth $20 VG, $35 F, $70 VF, $150 EF, $400 UNC.
This variety (spear) is about 4 times more valuable than the trident type.
This one should deffinetly be a keeper!
Nice token!

Maybe one of you guys can!

Congrats! That is a really nice, very desirable example. Definitely a keeper. I have one or two in my Canadian Token collection but worn nearly smooth.
