Comment

This was struck to promote the annual Canadian Numismatic Association convention and show, which is held in a different location every year. In 1979, that event was hosted by the Edmonton Coin Club. (Today, the Club is called the "Edmonton Numismatic Society".) As with most wooden nickel-like tokens, the die alignment is essentially random.
