The catalog above is great for varieties.. For grading it depends on the mint which struck the token. One struck from the Heaton mint is different than one struck from say the Belleville mint. If you can find one ,the Colonial workbook from Charlton is a good beginner book.

I am not aware of any specific site germane to Canadian Colonial Tokens.
Charlton's books are excellent, as well as Dr. Haxby's printed by Whitman. Some rather current speciality catalogues were published by Greg Ingram, Branko Marelic, and earlier by Dr. Bird.
Dependent upon what you are seeking, Dr. Courteau authored several indepth studies on certain serieses.
For specific questions, post a good large photo of the obverse and reverse and I will try to be of assistance.

If anyone wants an in depth analysis by Dr. Coil on Canadian Tokens send me an E-Mail.
Private publication. Two digital files = one on just Blacksmiths. State your preference.
Just promise to buy my new book on Blacksmiths in 2017 <bg>.
