Larry & Menina, This type of landscape design would be nice on a $300 Silver Strike and I think it would open the door to a whole new series of strikes. Even if you were to look at the Silver Mining designs that were submitted by Walt for the club coin contest, they seem to be along the same theme as what you have come up with and if they could be done in the same detail, this may be a new and much better beginning. Personally I don't feel that the trains would be a good design since they were minted by Main Street Station, Railroad Pass, Boulder Station, Comstock, Delta Saloon, Gold Country, Gold River, Gold Strike, Red Garter and Plantation Station. With this type of discussion, if for no other reason, it would give the remaining Casino's an idea of what the collectors are looking for in their designs for the new $300's.
