C&S Token with Indian Head Penny Inlay
■ This is an interesting example of a 1901 "Indian Head" penny pressed into a silver token labeled "The Colorado and Southern Ry Colorado for Wealth Climate and Scenery." The token is also decorated with a four-leaf clover implying that this advertising item was intended as a "lucky charm."
– Does anyone know how these promotional items were given out? Was it part of an advertising campaign for special excursions and such?
