CoinAdvocate Valued Member United States 141 Posts	Posted 06/06/2018 9:37 pm Found this 1850 Bank of Upper Canada Half Penny Bank Token in a coin shop yesterday and thought it was in great shape for a good price so I picked it up. I'm not huge on Canadian currency but this one struck me because it states "Bank Token" which to me seems very interesting. What grade would you guys give it? Thanks Everyone CoinAdvocate It is not enough to merely enjoy coins; one must Advocate for them! Report this Post to the Staff

Wade Pillar of the Community Canada 2781 Posts	Posted 06/06/2018 11:32 pm you have some damage issues, and obviously some wear. these coins were extremely well made, compared to regular decimal series you almost have to be thinking specimen or prooflike. 1850 is the hardest of the 4 issues (1850,1852,1854,1857) to find in high grades (1857 being the easiest) yours appears VG10 maybe F12 here is an (1854) MS64 for comparison Edited by Wade 06/06/2018 11:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff
