DH 1b • 1793 Druid/RNG Cypher halfpenny token. This is my first Conder token from North Wales. Parys Mine and Mona Mine were located at Parys Mountain. Major smelting operations were conducted at Anglesey and access to the North Sea was located at the harbor at Amlwch. You can use google Earth to view the area and a lot of photos. Just type in Parys Mountain. The strip mine, lodes, veins, mine shafts and tunnels at Parys Mountain were part of a vast mining operation that dominated the world's copper markets for many years. The fine copper produced brought £5 more per tone than copper from other sources, due to it's high purity after a series of calcining operations.http://www.angleseymining.co.uk/ParysMou....%20pamphlet.htm From the refined copper, 250 tons of one penny tokens were produced and 50 tons of halfpence, or halfpenny tokens. Surely most of the Conder Tokens ever produced were struck in copper mined at Parys Mountain. The only difference between my token and Ben's DH1d is the edge lettering. The edge lettering on my token reads: PAYABLE IN LONDON BRISTOL & LANCASTER • X • I'd estimate the grade on this raw token at MS-64.
I like Civil War Tokens and Civil War Store Cards and more recently, 18th Century British Conder Tokens. I have also collected U.S. Type and a few commemorative issues, I have a very few ancients now, and an accumulation of various world coins.
