International Transit Company?

Does anyone have a photo of a token for the International Transit Company of Sault Ste Marie,Ontario, Canada? I found a token and this is the only company I can find that it might be from but I can not find a picture of the token on the web. It is a brass color with a large T in the middle of one side. Sizewise, between a nickel and quarter. The words International Transit are also on it. From what I can find out the company was formed around 1901 and operated street cars. Thanks for any help.

No pic found online, but token is listed in <EM>The Atwood-Coffee Catalogue of United States and Canadian Transportation Tokens</EM> as being from Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. Some varieties are "Good for One Adult Fare," and others "Good for One Child Fare." The tokens were reportedly used on a ferry between the Michigan and Ontario cities of the same name, from around 1953 until a bridge opened in 1962.
Best of luck,
Buckram
