I have always loved this series of test tokens. I think subject matter spoke to me, especially the 50 Tokens pieces. I have been fortunate to acquire a couple of these pieces over the years. Does anybody else have any they are willing to show?

Nice! Those brass ones are also very scarce. I had one at one point......I picked it up in a bulk collection buy. I sold maybe 10 to 15 years back it to a noted toonie collector who used to post a lot here. You have any of the unusual 1 cent examples?

The only '1 cent' piece I have is the the 10 token test piece on a copper planchet. I picked this up 15 or so years ago.

Nice and scarce TT but sadly not on my want list. For me that is a 10 cent TT. But not one you see very often!
