Hey Everyone,

Digging in deep over here. I believe this may be a bank token. Not quite sure. This is an interesting piece. I'd really appreciate some input. I can't find it in my book. It's good condition, still shiny, slight signs of wear. Anybody have some input.

one side............Bank of Montreal - Province of Canada
other side..........Bank Token - Concordia Salus - Half Penny 1844

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you for your time!

It's a Breton 527 copper bank token. Need to see pics. Your description sounds like they're in XF or better, they could be worth $$$, or maybe they've been cleaned. Without pics it's hard to say. Is it in a holder of some kind?

Thanks for the reply. I tried uploading pictures on another coin, but the files are to large. It says I have a 90kb limit? Is there a way to compress a photo's file size? I figure it out! lol

I have that coin as well. Any help with the grading/pricing would be appreciated. Very new here and looking forward to putting up images/posting of what I have that may interest others as well as myself.

This is for the coin pictured...Somebody help me out on the grade, but I'm going to guess the grade as VG-F. There are a few variations of this coin, but they are all quite common. the price will range from $5-$10.

I would also like to see pics of the original coin mentioned.

benevolent, try resizing your over-the-limit photo files in a photo programme, such as Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop. It's fairly easy to do once you get the hang of it.

Sorry... I didn't realise the resizing question was from almost 15 months ago.

Thanks Tfred. My novice brain needs practice on grading for sure. Will keep looking at other posts and get a little more knowledge every day.
