Canada 1812 Colonial Wellington Peninsular Token, CH#WE-11A2
Offered is a very attractive example of a Wellington ‘Peninsular’ token (1st group) produced before Duke’s victory at Madrid, CH#WE-11A2. These tokens were struck by Halliday, and found their way to the Canadas in 1814 when troops previously stationed in Europe were redeployed to fight the Americans. This example displays wonderful overall detail, and bears an even, deep chocolate patina, making it a a great addition to any Napoleonic, Military, Canadian, or colonial collection alike!
