RE: Sheriff Pat Garrett Silver Strike Token

The wild west indeed. I think there was a lot of betrayal during the 18, 19 and 20th century in not only US but other government or the world, and since the rule of law wasn't completely established back then, people could kill and be killed without any form of retribution. Meanwhile that's a coin with quite a history

Sort:  

When there is a lack of clear law everything is muddy. There were places where the law was actually the bad guys much like when Billy the Kid killed the sheriff who was partly responsible for killing one of his friends. It would have been a dangerous place to live back then.

Thanks, I like this one in the collection!
