About This Item

Telemark Canal coin

We found this coin unactivated in the cache Creepy. Thanks to whoever left it. After some quick research, this is what I learned:

Telemarkskanalen is the Telemark Canal in Norway.

"The Telemark Canal was etched in the mountains well over 100 years ago, and when the canal was completed in 1892 the rest of Europe called it “the eighth wonder of the world". Five hundred men had worked for five years, blasting their way through the mountains. With a total of 28 lock chambers, the route was cleared from Skien to the ancient Norwegian town of Dalen, a sailing route of 105 km and with an elevation difference of 72 meters."
