I have an 1843 half penny token for New Brunswick (Canada) that was handed down to my father from his mother's side of the family. It's pretty beat-up, measures an inch across and has a bent edge but I am fond of it. So I wondered if any of my fellow WikiTreers had a similar experience.
I have given away ("bequeathed") the coins handed down from my ancestors. My cousin now has the 1803 penny that came from our great-grandfather's store. My son has the 1853 half dollar that my grandmother's grandmother gave her. However, I still have the penny "handed down" to me by my son.
