The Alaska Railroad has played a crucial role in the development and growth of Alaska, providing transportation and freight services to remote areas and connecting communities across the state. Since its inception in 1923, the Alaska Railroad has been a lifeline for many Alaskans, carrying essential goods, fuel, and passengers through some of the most challenging terrain in the world. Today, the railroad continues to play a vital role in Alaska’s economy and way of life. We’ve been making medallions for the Alaska Railroad since 1990. It is available in golden bronze, 1 ounce .999 fine silver, 1 oz single gold relief (24k plating on front of the silver coin) and 1 oz double gold relief (24k gold plating on both sides). It is similar in size to a silver dollar and is packaged in an airtight container and handsome gift box. The reverse features the Alaska Railroad logo. #4001-26
