ELKO

As far as Stockmen's, there is basically only one strike, but there are different mint marks. Still had a machine last I heard.

Gold Country issued two different sets of four, but there are also variations in the brass or copper rings.

If you care about shiny or frosted, you can add some more.

Machine was pulled from Gold Country 2-3 years ago. There's a local (coin dealer, an great guy) who frequents the cage and has bought up most of the returns (which are few)

Here's the interesting part about Gold Country, most of the Strikes were picked up by players who come in on Casino Express three night trips. (great deal, under $200 for the whole deal, room, airline, transportation, three nights) So the strikes are scattered all across the central north and western states. Probably no local interest like Las Vegas or Reno.

Say that Elko is roughly mid-way between Reno and Salt Lake City. You have mostly travelers taking the strikes home, from a small casino, that didn't have large numbers of the strikes produced. Consider it about the same as any small town casino that had a strike machine.

Get specifics from someone who "has a clue" grin I had a guide on PDA and the lady I was dating got that as a gift. By now, it's likely that all of the eight designs and variations for Gold Country have been documented.
