GEC Cripple Creek SFO production numbers?

Post by Nate »

Hoping for some help on this? This looks to be a 2009 25# pattern GEC, but there are no records on the GEC website for 2009.
Anyone know how many were made? And if made by GEC?

Nate I seem to recall there being 100 of those but I'm not positive.

PS- Yep I'm wrong, was thinking of another pattern.

I see a 250209J Strawberry Jig Bone listed at 18 pieces Unserialized. It's listed under the Tidioute brand.

Would they have made a Tidioute and a Cripple Creek both in Strawberry Jig Bone?

Nate scratch that number I mentioned, I was thinking of the #12 pattern. I have no idea how many of yours were made. Pretty unique with the matchstrike nail mark, I don't recall seeing any GEC 25's with that feature.
