GABatGH Valued Member United States 165 Posts	Posted 03/19/2017 6:23 pm The holder that this token was in was quite old, and had this written on it: BN 980 WE9 $275 After spending some time in Google, I could not find this obverse with this reverse. Anyone have any ideas about this token, and its value? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 03/20/2017 4:08 pm Yup, I see it has...lol.. So, I presume the other is 'rare' because of no date? Report this Post to the Staff

Post good photos of the obverse and reverse and I was endeavor to ascertain the specific Dr. Courteau variety. doug Report this Post to the Staff
