Vintage Mining Rail(1881)Keychain/Gold Flakes in Wooden Box.

Description

Listing is for 1 of my slices of Old Mining Rail with the Silver Jump ring/Keyring in a Wooden Box. I also added one of my .5ml of Montana Gold Flakes. There not worth a lot but it’s kinda cool. Box size is around 3 inches(L) X 2 inches(H) X 2 inches(W).
Keychain is made from 8 pound rail used in Gold and Silver Mines in Montana( Rail weight is measured by the yard, 1 yard or three feet of this is 8 pounds) and was used during the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. I handmade these from a piece of Rail that was manufactured in Colorado in 1881 for the Gold and Silver Mines throughout America. I cut, cleaned it up and made them into these awesome Keychains. They are just under 3/8 inches thick and weight around 1 1/2 ounces. These are something a Railroader, Railroad Fan, Rail Fan or a nice gift for one of them. MADE IN AMERICA.  Please email if you have any questions or would like more images. I will answer you back just as soon as I can since I’m a working Railroader myself. I restored these to the actually color when the rail was first made and coated them in penetrating oil. Thank you for looking!
This is for 1 Keychain W/ Bottle Gold Flakes in a Stained and Polyurethane Wooden Box and will be shipped USPS first class in a Secure, Thicker and well Packaged Box. Getting it to you Safe and Secure will be my first priority.
GUARANTEED AUTHENTIC. STEEL WAS MADE AND USED IN THE USA. CUT AND MADE INTO A KEYCHAIN BY A RAILROADER. 8 POUND RAIL HASN’T BEEN MADE IN A LONG TIME SO, WHEN ITS GONE, IT’S PROBABLY GONE FOREVER.
