NEW CANADIAN MUNICIPAL TRADE TOKEN BOOK

The following is reprinted from the C.N.A. E-Bulletin, an
electronic publication of the Canadian Numismatic
Association (Issue Number 7, March 20, 2005):

"The collecting of Canadian municipal trade tokens is a large
field. If you were to take a survey at your local coin club in
Canada, we venture to guess that every collector has at least
some in their collection, with at least half possessing a dozen
or more. This is possible because hundreds of municipalities
and regions have issued them over the years, most in sufficiently
large quantity to make them readily available and very affordable.
Thanks to the late Jerry Remick, who wrote hundreds of articles
on the topic, to publications such as Canadian Coin News that
published them, and to Serge Pelletier and Ray Desjardins that
have published catalogues over the years, its popularity remains
high.

Eligi Consultants has just published the 2nd edition (2005) of
"A Compendium of Canadian Municipal Trade Tokens" that
includes denomination, year, description of obverse and reverse,
metal, quantity struck and value of all known Canadian municipal
trade dollars. The catalogue is a 124 page booklet size 5-1/2" x
8-1/2", spiral bound, with plastic cover. The catalogue is
available for $12.95 plus $2.50 shipping and handling anywhere
in Canada or U.S. If shipment is made to Ontario, add 15%
PST & GST. Anywhere else in Canada just add 7% GST.
