Nova Scotia “Mayflower” coinage -- The halfpenny and a penny are often referred to as the most beautiful of the pieces of this time period. These were true coins as they had been officially approved by the British Government. They were struck at Heaton’s mint in Birmingham, though the dies were made at the Royal Mint.

NEW SCOTLAND = NOUVELLE ECOSSE I know that in 1867 Canada became an independent country. News-Scotland, New Brunswick and the new provinces of Ontario and Quebec formed a confederation
