Is that from the El Cazador wreck? Has that look.
Looks like an early state dryer coin that didn't progress into further damage. It is unusual looking, but yes, you're right that it is similar to...
By the way, y'all may recall that we gave away a sweet Canadian Centennial set recently, in the @Railguy giveaway. I just discovered an identical...
Just a wee bump here, to move this up with the active contests, above all the closed ones.
@steve westermeier - you tried to enter the last contest after it had closed. Now's your chance to enter a new one.
@nerosmyfavorite68 and @GoldBug999 have been messaged about their @Theodosius contest winnings. So far no word back. I'll give 'em a month to...
