Vintage Railroad Mining Rail(1881)used in Montana Gold/Silver Mines Keychain🇺🇸

Description

Listing is for 1 Keychain in either a Gold or Silver Keyring. If you like, please add a message when your checking out or send me a message on the color you prefer.  And I just recently started adding small vials of Gold/Silver flakes to the orders for my way of saying thank you. Not worth much, but kinda cool. Thanks
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. One of the last things I do is insert one of the thickest Jump Rings I can get through, almost 2 mm thick. After spending your hard earned money on one, I never wanted anyone losing it.These are something a Railroader, Railroad Fan, Rail Fan Organizations, Miner or just something anyone would like to have that is just really cool and Historical. 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.
This is for 1 Keychain and will be shipped in a padded envelope.
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.
