I didn’t tag this and I know it doesn’t count.  Just posting it for fun.

Thanks, Alan Adams for the Silver Spike.

 

Trivia time: there were four ceremonial spikes used at the “last spike” ceremony at Promontory Summit in 1869. The gold- and silver-plated “Arizona” spike sold at auction in 2023 for $2.2 million.

 

I’ll spare you the suspense. It will not be awarded to the winner of the pointless prize.
