Lighthouse Collectable - New London Ledge - Danbury Mint - NEW

Connecticut - Built in 1909 atop a concrete pier in New London CT Harbor the light itself sits atop a striking three-story building. Individual keepers tended the light from its inception a century ago until 1939 when the U.S. Coast Guard took over. In 1987 the light was finally automated eliminating the need for anyone to stay onsite. The story goes that in the 1920s or 1930s the keeper of the lighthouse possibly a man named John Randolph was so distraught that his wife had run off with a local ferry captain that he jumped from the roof to his death. -Certificate of Authenticity from Danbury Mint included - 4 3 4 tall contact tibbs839(at)aol.com
