SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 05/20/2012 5:42 pm Being originally from Nova Scotia, I have a small side collection of "transit tokens" from the Halifax Dartmouth Bridge Commission. I notice there are several types, or generations, of tokens for the various class vehicles, which also appear to have been struck in 3 (or more) metals/finishes. Does anyone have any reference information on how these tokens are classified? Thanks in advance.

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10456 Posts	Posted 06/08/2012 3:27 pm Judging by the response, I guess I picked a really obscure collection theme. I will do some literature searching, and if I can't find anything, perhaps it is time to line up the tokens under the XRF I have here at work and write a numismatic paper for the CN Journal.
