Here's an oddity.
I thought - it's an advertising piece, but why the strange design?
It's a tool! For undoing the screw so you can change your battery.
There's no tool thread!

Ha ha!  I'm about to write my treatise on token design for the future - top trumps, tool.......
Once I was a member of a Mensa creative thought sub-group.  Then I realised I didn't want to be in Mensa anymore

I like this token design. ... its the ultimate I feel. 

A NZ milk token designed  to hang in the milk bottle.

And it looks like a cow!

That too.  Moo.

Whilst I remember.....
In the good old days we used to have a card school at my place and inevitably no one had any change.
So I used to bring out some tokens and use those for small change.
Invariably we had to change the types of tokens used on each occasion.
So another use

I know that shape was used for Canadian milk tokens and when I google the legend, I get an eBay sale, where the seller links it to Nova Scotia.

Yes it certainly appears to be Nova Scotia. However there is a Brookfield in NZ to which it had been attributed by a eBay seller.

That comes of choosing the prettiest image; here are some Canadian ones.
