I believe you have either the variety LC-47D5 or LC-47D6 (as catalogued in the Charlton Canadian token guide) depending on whether it has an engrailed or reeded edge respectively. This is a rarer variety and was catalogued by Courteau as No. 28 in his monograph on the "Bust and Commerce" or "Tiffin" tokens. He assigned it a rarity of R-7 on a scale to 10.
Yours is an example of one of the non-local British issues that were imported to Canada at a later date for circulation.
