NL-15-12-02R. Mining operations developed quickly at Notre Dame Bay following the discovery of copper deposits at Tilt Cove. The largest of these was the Betts Cove Mining Company, which operated from 1875 to 1883. Scrip was issued to pay miners and could be redeemed at the company store. A superb rarity, likely unique.
