Here is a very special version of a copper mining hopper. This scale hopper was put out by K-Line in 2006 as the very limited TABLE BANQUET prize at the Train Collectors Association National Convention in Phoenix, Arizona, hosted by the Desert Division of the Train Collectors Association.
The BANQUET table prize goes to one of the ten people at each banquet table on the last night of the convention. So only ten percent of the attendees who go to the banquet will get one. The special event info is printed underneath as pictured.
This hopper is really unique. Not only is it diecast, but it features that cool copper plating that really makes it shine. And that metallic looking load is unlike anything you have seen in toy trains.
