Yes the is identified as Charlton LC-60E2.
Within this LC-60E2 grouping, Doctor Courteau identifies 4 sub-varieties
numbered 14-17. Of these, this token is Courteau variety 15. Gregory Ingram
and Branko Marelic published an excellent work on this series some time back.
Some areas of demarcation involve the design of the upper loop of the harp;
the relationship of the foot of the harp in relation to the numerals in the
date, the number and size of the 'ruffles' atop the breastplate; and the length
and style of the hair strands from the ribbon to the shoulder. In some cases,
additional diagnostics are required.
Courteau variety 15 has a Rarity factor of 1 (common as mud). The grade is AU 55, and
dependent upon colour, perhaps a MS. Nice token.
