Bill Pickett of the 101 Ranch, orobably the greatest cowboy of them all, was a black man.

"A small cache of perforated and disfigured coins was found beneath the floorboards; the people of this mining frontier town likely believed those coins could be transformed into objects of supernatural control. "
