| 裏面の説明 | Seated figure of Britannia facing left, depicted in the traditional manner with a trident held in her left hand and a shield resting to her right side, set upon a rocky outcrop. The design closely imitates the reverse type of contemporary British regal halfpennies but is rendered with notably less refinement, displaying soft, indistinct detail in the drapery and accessories. Stars or pellets may appear in the surrounding field. The legend, if present, is poorly formed or entirely absent, reflecting the unofficial and utilitarian nature of this imitation piece. |

These so-called "regal imitations" occupied a legal grey zone: they mimicked official British copper coinage closely enough to circulate at face value while being produced entirely outside Royal Mint authority. By the 1830s, Lower Canada was chronically short of small change, and privately struck tokens filled the gap so effectively that colonial merchants rarely questioned their legitimacy. The CCT designation places this piece within Breton's landmark 1894 catalogue of Canadian colonial issues, which remains the foundational reference for this series.
