If thats a 1954 Bank of Canada token,theres several on eBay.
Quote that follows is from:
http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&Params=A1SEC818494

"After 1849 the BANK OF UPPER CANADA received the right to coin copper and large issues of pennies and halfpennies appeared in 1850, 1852, 1854 and 1857."
