Post Your Canadian Tokens

To date, I had only identified 33* of the varieties listed by Dr. Courteau.

But then, of the 9 varieties I have not been able to identify to date among the 319 described by Courteau (All for the Half Penny), 4 are among the 1850 issue (Courteau #014, #042, #059 and #072), while I have identified a little over 900 examples for the Half Penny 1850 issue (Since I started keeping track).

So I guess some of them may be among those four.

*Correction

A few years ago, I contacted Louis Chevrier of CCCS to ask him if he was planning to publish a population report for Canadian tokens that had been certified by his company.

He told me that it was not planned, since the way he had done the entries in his database for the colonial tokens prevented a quick and reliable report. So I set out to compile the information myself through various means.

As a result, I recently passed the 1400 mark of certifications listed. Obviously, this data is only a part of the total number of tokens certified by CCCS. How many? 20%?, 40%?, 60%? To be honest, I have no idea. But for lack of an alternative, I think it's still relevant information.

For those who are interested, you can download it for free in PDF format at the following address:

@Makitag:
I still have one copy available at home from my last reprint. If you are interested, just contact me privately.

Unfortunately, you have disabled the option for me to send you an email from the forum (maybe you can enable it?). And as for me, I try not to publish my personal email address on the forums, so as not to be spammed.

Otherwise, you can also contact me via ebay:

Gimme a couple of days & I will post

@Wade:
Yes, I had seen this token several days ago. Thus, this is one of the most advanced stage of die wear I've seen to date for the variety Courteau #120. But otherwise, there are still much more extreme cases for this series of tokens.

For CCCS serial numbers, to keep things simple, only one serial number is needed. From this I can then search in the CCCS database to determine the previous and subsequent #s linked to the colonial tokens.

And if you prefer to keep this information confidential, you can always contact me privately.
Thank you.

Very very nice. Gene's eating his heart out.
