Description :
Here is the second edition of this improved work of Eugene G. Courteau for his book published in 1934 and entitled «The St. George copper tokens of the Bank of Upper Canada», which now happens to be in the public domain.
This book aims to identify multiple dies used to strike the millions of tokens of this series on St. George slaying the dragon. In addition, Courteau had identified 319 die combinations used for the obverse and reverse of these series of tokens, issued between 1850 and 1857.
The original work published the year of Dr. Courteau death's is difficult for the uninitiated to understand. Maybe because it has no illustrations, in addition to having been written with multiple abbreviations and in a very condensed manner. That's why the author thought it would be a good idea to retake the content of the book, and improve it to make it little easier for numismatists to find their way around this topic.
Compared to the first edition, a large number of corrections and additions have been made. As a result, the book contains more than three dozen additional pages.
This book is about:
Description of 319 die combinations in addition to some supplements;
Hundreds of photos and illustrations to help identification for your coins;
Dozens and dozens interesting varieties sometimes not very well-known;
And most importantly many hours of research and pleasure.
