I was given the opportunity to aquire this carved coin today by the artist and jumped at it. It is an 1854 Seated Liberty Half Dollar w/ Arrows carved by Billzach (Unsigned). You may have seen some of Bill's higher detailed carvings that he's famous for (He has post some here, most recently one with the bust of Martha Washington), and while this one is a lower detail carving, it still shows the same skill and creativity that makes his higher detailed carvings great. I never cease to be amazed by the amazing attention to detail, patience, and skill that artists which choose to carve coins demonstrate.
