@Makitag That is certainly an interesting Bust and Harp. The doubling is easy to see, too bad no date showing.

I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect... I'm learning a little more every day.

Thanks everyone for your nice comments.
@ainsivalavie - I was aware my blacksmith was ICCS F-15, however did not know it was ex Cooper. Thanks for the information.
Both are at the upper end of what I ever thought I'd spend on tokens, particularly the blacksmith, but I've been slowly convincing myself of the saying "you only live once".
I have recently been reading a lot about both blacksmiths and 'ships, colonies & commerce' tokens, and really like how BL-28 connects the two.

Those are all AMAZING!!! Token people!! I really enjoyed reading through all the posts of the different token everyone has.... I have a large (350+) collection of Canadian/Provincial tokens but they are all newer than what you are showing here. Basically they are all trade tokens from all over Canada. If anyone get a post on those going I'll be posting pics like a madman!!
Keep on Keepin' On!!!
