| Aanvullende informatie |
Nova Scotia issued its own bronze coinage under imperial authority before Confederation in 1867, after which the province surrendered its monetary autonomy to the new Dominion. These cents were struck at the Royal Mint in London, with the 1861 issue produced by Heaton's Birmingham Mint under contract — a distinction that occasionally surfaces in die characteristic differences between the two sources. The series was rendered obsolete almost immediately upon Confederation, giving circulated survivors relatively short active lives.
