Province of Canada copper "Bank of Montreal - Front View" 1/2 Penny Token 1844 MS64 Brown NGC, KM-Tn18, PC-1B5. Small trees, short nose beaver variety. Highly sought-after in mintstate, this pleasing example of the type exhibits a chocolaty-brown tone to the surfaces with a distinctive coppery-red flaring out from against the devices. A few die cracks are visible extending from the corners of the mint building, and the lightest remnants of red wax on the reverse devices imply the coin's use in a late 19th- or early 20th-century catalog.
