jeffrey stewart frank freeman finds early canadian money rummaging around an old log house on his property frank freeman of rjt 2 acton re cently dug up three items of early canadiana including a bank of montreal half penny dated 1844 the other two items were also early currency bank tokens from the years 1850 and 1854 mr freeman took the coin and tokens to bank of montreal man ager ted pratt who admitted he had never seen them before he urged mr freeman to hold on to them especially the coin which he thought would be more val uable further investigation by mr pratt revealed however that the halfpenny is an odd find but not rare value of the coin today would range from 50 cents to a maximum of three dollars if it was in mint condition the bank of montreal which recently celebrated its 150th birthday was given the right to coin copper in 1842 the first pennies and halfpennies made were of inferior workmanship but eventually they produced some good ones and the 1844 halfpenny is one of them coin collectors however are still fascinated by the banks early currency and although mr freemans find may not be very valuable it is still very unique pork is our best dietary source of
