The Montalbán hacienda tokens function no different than some of the old pre-Canadian tokens issued around various communities in Canada before Confederation. Yes, they can create an unfair monopoly especially when there is insufficient coinage circulating around the local colony and settlements.
I enjoy collecting coins from around the world.

Yes, coins have their charm; it's a way to touch the past in a certain way. Many haciendas worked this way for many years, minting their own coins.
Thanks a lot for reading my post
