Limited 1st Run Golden Spike Deck (Gold Edition)

When America’s first transcontinental railroad was finished in May 1869, a golden spike was driven into the ground where the Union Pacific met the Central Pacific Railroad. This symbolic gesture not only marked the completion of the historic feat but launched a new era of industry in the United States.

Now, you can celebrate this momentous piece of history with the Golden Spike Playing Cards. Using a cross-hatch technique similar to that of engravings and lithographs from this time period, this deck of cards is remarkably authentic.

Golden Spike Playing Cards are manufactured by Legends Playing Card Company. This special Gold Edition comes safely wrapped in an gold-foiled, embossed tuck case illustrated with the Union Pacific #119 train. A special advertisement card with unique characters based on the major players in the creation of the 1st transcontinental railroad is also included with every deck of cards.
