Wild guess. They were both done by the same engraver?

Sorry but none of those answers are the correct one. Keep trying. I will send the token to the one with the answer I am looking for. More clues on Sunday but I don' want to make it too easy - harr!

Well when the province of upper Canada and lower Canada merged only the bank of upper Canada was allowed to continue issuing tokens.

So I'll take a stab as both the bank of upper Canada and The Royal Mint are in Toronto
