QUEBEC, Montreal - L. Landry 1/2 Pain Bakery Token 21mm Copper, Breton 612
Breton informs us that this token, which bears the name of L. Landry, was never ordered by him. Six of the one loaf and some of the half loaf were sent to him, but he never learned from whence they came. Several more later appeared in different metals and were sold to collectors. Breton came to the conclusion that these coins were issued as a speculation, to be sold as a Numismatic novelty. (such was the 1890s)
