[QUOTE="Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2802617, member: 71510"]It's true, I love Nevada - and particularly Carson City - where I got to live and love the old west. I'm on the other side of the hill now in gold rush territory, but silver and sagebrush will always be where I want to be. :) Pay close attention to the details - they are changing the size of the tokens they are minting - so you folks with the old ones - they're now officially the "old design" of the tokens! A local story from the Nevada Appeal: [IMG]http://www.nevadaappeal.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/CoinPress-NAP-072117-1.jpg[/IMG] A crane delivers Coin Press No. 1 to the front door of the Nevada State Museum in Carson City in February 1958. It had minted coins at the Carson City Mint from 1870 to 1893. In 1958. it was at the San Francisco Mint, but was scheduled to be scrapped when the state of Nevada bought it for $225.
