1850 Bank of Upper Canada Half Penny Token

[angellionel]

I met up with midas this morning to again detect at the Town Common. This time the Common yielded just one old silver coin, a 1913 Barber dime, though I also picked up a 1947 Roosevelt. The surprise of the hunt was an 1850 Bank of Upper Canada Half Penny Token. It was down a good 9 to 10, and with the tone and Fe/Co numbers it was generating I thought I had a silver quarter.



At noon I also stopped at the same park I hit yesterday while I had been on my way home and picked up another two silver coins, a 1952 Roosevelt dime and a 1943 merc.

My silver for the day.



There weren't as many wheat cents, nor as old, this time around, but I'll take them.

Yep, that is a nice Token for sure As Del said, it should clean up well, but it kinda looks good that way too. I bet it never makes the sink and goes right in the wheatie pile, for when you are old Great group of silver too.
