1837 Quebec Bank Habitant Token One Penny Deux Sous Lower Canada Breton 521 F

The 1837 Habitant tokens were issued by four Lower Canada banks during a shortage of small change. Each shows the bank's Concordia Salus arms with BANK TOKEN ONE PENNY on one side and a habitant (French-Canadian farmer) in winter dress with PROVINCE DU BAS CANADA DEUX SOUS on the other. Breton lists all of the penny tokens as Breton 521.

This is the Quebec Bank issue, with QUEBEC BANK on the ribbon under the arms. It is a Fine example with even brown color and readable legends on both sides. There are a few rim bumps and nicks along the bottom and left edge, shown in the photos.

BOURNE2TREASURE
WHO WE ARE Bourne2Treasure is a family-owned business based in Dayton, TN, proud to be celebrating our 25th year in operation. Along the way we’ve earned over 27,000 pieces of feedback as a seller.
SHIPPING Every coin we sell ships in protective packaging — no exceptions. The exact container depends on the shipping class: for example, our Standard Envelope option is limited to a maximum of 1/4" thickness, so a bubble mailer isn’t used there. Instead, coins travel in a vinyl flip, a thick baggie, or a cardboard flip, whichever best protects that particular coin. We ship daily, Monday through Friday, excluding all USPS holidays.
RETURNS / GUARANTEE We maintain (unless otherwise noted on items like bullion) a 30-day, FREE-to-you return policy. All we want is happy customers — if you don’t like what we send, just send it back, free of charge.
QUESTIONS? CONTACT US Contact us Monday–Friday, 9–5 EST, with any questions or concerns. Our number one goal is happy customers who buy from us time and time again. If you ever have an issue, please let us know — and remember, our return policy above has you covered.
GRADING DISCLAIMER We arrive at an approximate grade using a combination of our own years of experience and, increasingly, Artificial Intelligence (AI). We are not a professional grading service, and any grade shown is only an approximation — please make your own determination based on the photos provided.
