A beautiful cast iron Keystone number plate from K4s "5443." This locomotive was built by Baldwin in 1927, construction no. 59858, and sold for scrap in June, 1948. The plate shows newer red field paint with gold border and numerals. Back of plate has older black paint and rust, with "X18183B" embossed. There are three stud mounting positions as expected, with evidence that the plate was torch-burned off of the smoke box door at the scrapping venue.
This is not a standard shippable item and will require 3rd party shipping or pickup arrangements to be made.
