LC-10A1 PCGS MS-63 BN Halfpenny token 1838 Canada Sideview Montreal Breton 524

LC-10A1, Breton 524
Graded by PCGS MS-63 Brown.
It was part of the famous John J. Ford, Jr. Collection of tokens, sold in August 2013, at the ANA in Chicago, lot #21100.
Interestingly described by the cataloguer as being in brass. PCGS identified as being copper. However it is true that the token shows some yellowish surface in some areas.
Excellent example to depict the reason why these tokens were refused and returned. They were often of clearly inferior workmanship as stated the manager of the bank.
