Description
Gingras 260d
The lettering is larger on the tokens in this set.
From the Cooper collection.
The St. Lawrence and Labrador Districts amalgamated in June 1922. The tokens resulting from this amalgamation are thought to have been made the following year. The tokens are made of aluminium and represent 1MB, 5MB, 10MB and 20MB. Two varieties of these tokens are known to exist. One variety has small lettering and the other large lettering indicating two separate issues.
From The Hudson’s Bay Company Tokens, Medals and Scrip by Scott E. Douglas.
