Prince Edward Island "Sheaf of Wheat/Plow" 1/2 Penny Token 1840 VF Details (Environmental Damage) NGC, Br-916 (R4), PE-4 (this coin), Courteau-3 (R9), Robins-29211. Plain edge. Coin alignment. A great rarity within the series, not only as a type, but also for serving as the plate coin in such a standard reference as the Charlton catalog. Despite what might on its surface seem a low technical grade, which is actually relatively high for the type, the strike by comparison appears remarkably attractive with minimal obverse weakness, perhaps a bit soft on the highpoints, and good definition to the raised features.
From the Doug Robins Collection of Canadian Tokens, Part II
