Who has seen a Magdalen Islands 1d. trader's currency token?

[Guest Aidan Work]

How many of you have seen an example of the rare Magdalen Islands 1d. trader's token,which was issued in 1815?

 

Believe it or not,I actually found one over here in New Zealand & ended up getting it for my collection.We see a lot of Habitant & Front View pieces from Lower Canada & the St. George pieces from Upper Canada over here than any other pre-Confederation coins from any part of Canada.

 

Here's an article; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magdalen_Islands .
