Is it money or just token? If it's money is a 50 cent a dollar?

This is what I found...Canada Provincial Flower and Coats of Arms...About 1965 or 1966 the Shell oil company produced a set of medallions commemorating the Provincial flowers, and Provincial arms of the Canadian provinces, territories, and one for Canada as a whole. These have the Provincial flowers on one side and the provincial arms on the other. They were given away as promotions with gasoline purchases (one per purchase) until at least 1968, giving people reasonable time to collect the entire set. They were also available at least as late as 1973 via the Eatons 1973 Christmas catalogue ...So I'd say it's a token. And you asked about 50 cent vs dollar...The answer is that 50 cent is a half dollar....Hope this helps
