Maybe. When I was a kid, we found a Wells Fargo stage coach ditched on the ranch, along with a broken coach gun (Lincoln County) NM, presumably the result of a Comanche raid in Texas. It had clearly been there 100+ years.

With the exception of the leather straps and seats presumably being eaten by mice or other critters, it was basically in perfect, but weathered, condition.

My dad had it on display in Lincoln NM for a while, then sold it to Wells Fargo and it sits restored in the lobby of their bank in NYC.
