Re: Bust and harp token
Run out and buy the Charlton catalogue, Canadian Colonial Tokens (2010 is the latest I have, maybe there's a more recent one). There are 15 varieties listed, plus 3 Blacksmith types. Your 2 tokens are listed as LC-60E1 for the top one and LC-60C1 for the lower one.

From the Charlton catalogue I believe the first is LC-60E2 though I think it looks like copper.The second appears to be BL-8
