Nice condition / grade on the oldie Johnny B.

I wouldn't give it too much though, people traveled. I got a 2, and 3 cent US coins, it is fun to get something different / unexpected.

Nice Canadian token :thumbsup: makes you wonder how so much Canada coins ended up down here i found a few weeks ago a Upper Canadian token half penny . Good hunt :icon_thumright: Jim
Hey,if I am not mistaken your '57 is one of the rarest!!

The coins of Upper Canada are very popular with collectors of British Empire coins, not only those of Canada. There are a few scarce pieces in this series. The 1857 issue is quite difficult to find. The pieces have been given the affectionate nickname of "St. George Pieces", because of the obverse design.
