Tokens Coins: Canada Coins & Paper Money
A coin collection, especially one chiefly comprised of Canadian coins, isn't complete without some Canada tokens to represent other forms of tender besides official coins. Tokens were used for a variety of things, most notably by merchants whose tokens for five cents, for example, were worth five cents towards purchase of their goods, but worthless elsewhere. Tokens are an important part of Canadian commerce history, and so a comprehensive coin collection should contain a variety of tokens from Canada.Discount & Bargain
