"BLACKSMITH COPPERS".
Peculiar History of Some Canadian
Counterfeit Pennies.
A good deal baa been heard of
late years among coin collectors a
bout tbe so-called "Blacksmith" to
kens of Canada. The unsatisfactory
condition of the currency In Cana
da up to comparatively recent times
explains the reason for the issue of
such coins.
For many years tbe supply of le
gal copper colas bad been altogether
inadequate, so that often anything in
the shape of a copper passed cur

A J'ttle later this waa supplemented
by a deluge of imported private to
kens. Their over-abundance, accord
ing to a writer in the Numismatist,
soon caused them to be discredited.
and stringent means were adopted to
prevent further importation of such
coin into Canada or its manufacture
there. , T
But as the necessity for an ade
quate supply of small change be
came more pressing various ways
lor evading the blockade were evolv
ed. One of these was by making or
importing tokens which bore a daW
previous to the date of the edict
excluding private coins. Another way
which was at one time very preva
lent In England was to evade coun
terfeiting laws by suppressing the
legends and substituting instead some
capricious or meaningless legend as
"Claudius Bomanus," "Geobgius Ti
Rox" "George Rules," Glorius ler
Vis" etc. These spurious coins pre
sented the same general appearance
to the ignore at populace as the regal
coinage.
A third means and this is char
acteristic of tbe Canadian Black
smiths, was by counterfeRlne the
worn British half pence, the only
legal copper coins in circulation, on
which the dote, legend and all hut
an indistinct outline of the design
had been effaced.
Although they thus produced a
rude coinage these early Canadian
coiners showed considerable skill In
so making fresh coins bear the ap
pearance of an old worn out but still
legal currency that they were able to
circulate vast quantities of their spu
rious Invitations. It la worth noting
that the designs on these Blacksmith
often face in tbe opposite direction
to their protoypes.
As an explanation of their name
the story is told that a blacksmith
of dissolute habits lived at Montreal
and when he wished to have a good
time struck two or three dollars in
coppers and thereby supplied him
self with sufficient change to grat
ify his wishes." The name was a-
dopted by numismatists and applied
to the whole aeries.

the absence from town of many mem
bars and the uncertain weather, there
was not a ruii attendance, as wa
3 an War Commissioner, Dr. Jenkins
gave us a very brignt and interest
ing talk on tbe work undertaken by
The League.
He suggested that we have a "Clean-
mg-up wees tor eacn warn in in
town, beginning with the First Ward.
This Clean ing-up Week should appeal
to every citizen as it is for the bene
fit and improvement of bis own in
dividual premises, as well as for tbe
good of the town that this work is
being donee.
He spoke of the higher work the
League could do by converting Tar
boro into a clean and healthy town,
and thereby preventing so much sick
ness among its citizens; for a clean
town means a healthy town, and a
healthy town means happy cW-ixens.
He also warned us against the
da.nee.rs which come from the use
of fire works on the Fourth of July
and at Christmas, and asked our sad
towards abolishing a practice which
results in so much loss of life and
limb throughout the whole country.
We hope that Dr. Jenkins will give
us another helpful and suggestive talk
Tbe Cleaning-up Week for the First
Ward, will begin June 20th.
