Good challenge!   1792 Halfpenny Conder, Inclined Plane and Coalbrookedale Bridge 2 Points UK - Keighley, Coalbrookedale 5 Points - Halfpenny 3 Points - 1792 5 Points - A conder 1 Point - Building (The thing containing the inclined Plane) 1 Point - More than 1 date (1779, 1789 and 1792) 3 Points - Copper Total 20 points  I love these coins, its like back in the late 1700s bragging about how modern and advanced everything was in the UK was a sport! In reality, they were covering up a gross infrastructure failure, a government that could not even maintain a steady coin supply unless it was fractional guineas (Like the govt just issuing $50 notes and nothing else today). I could have shown many of my numerous 1860s NZ tokens - but this one gains more points and everyone knows Ironbridge. Edited by Princetane
