I was given a 1992 Woodstock token by my friend Tyler. I had it in my coat pocket and left my coat unattended at a dorm party at Cape Breton University. Someone made off with that token, $200 and a knife (all in said pocket). A couple years pass and Tyler needs to sell of some stuff to raise funds as he got a girl pregnant, moved the girl in with him and the girl started a grease fire torching his trailer. I bought his '92 off him. It survived his trailer fire. Both of the Victorian Christmas tokens came from the Woodstock, NB Shoppers Drug Mart. In, like, '08, a box full of '92 tokens were discovered and Tyler rescued 3 and the rest were thrown out. I know a "box full" is not a standard measurement but I have never seen a dealer with that year token. What ever the mintage is for this piece you should knock 40 off of it.

Shediac
I have all the ones between 79-87. All worth a dollar, all nickel, all have a lobster/ ommar


In 1984, New Brunswicks 200th anniversary, we seen a lot of small towns ordering one off trade tokens bearing the "NB 200" logo. Minto was one such town. I have the regular nickel issued token and am looking for the brass version. I also have the.

Saint John
1984 Loyalist Dollar NB 200th Nickel $1
1984 Loyalist Dollar Gold Plated NB 200th $1
As well as a medallion and lapel pin featuring such a "NB 200" logo (Look at Campbellton's "84 too)

Fredericton

1984 200th NB Logo Nickel $1
Die 1 for 1982 said Valid in Cambellton. Once the mistake was discovered a few corrected ones saying Valid in Cam*P*bellton were produced. The one spelt right is rarer and commands more of a premium.

Dieppe
1999 Village de la Francophone Dollar Co-op Atlantique brass $1 version


Between the tokens I have and the ones I have seen in books I have noticed some overlapping symbolism. L.P. FIsher (Woodstock Library) was a loyalist as was most of the settlers of Saint John, Hence the Loyalst dollars. Although the Lobster is not the official anything of New Brunswick it keeps popping up on our tokens. NBCC has been on a few different town's tokens. St. Andrews by the Sea likes to name stuff after Sir James Dunn and the Algonquin and perhaps weirdest of all I have yet to see a single fiddlehead on anything!

As time and resources permit I would like to record mintages and Pelletier numbers.

This is my current, updated(ish) collection of New Brunswick Trade Tokens. I am always looking for more.
