tsacch · February 23, 2006 7:55PM

My newest coin tattoo. Did I ever tell you guys and gals I love Bust halves?

SportsModerator · February 23, 2006 8:18PM

OK, I'm impressed by your devotion to the series

fivecents · February 23, 2006 8:20PM

Nice tat.

<< My newest coin tattoo. >>

Do you have any other coin related tatoos?

SportsModerator · February 24, 2006 2:11AM

What happens if you switch collecting interests to something like Susan B. Anthony's?

tsacch · February 24, 2006 3:04AM

Bust halves are forever...plus its a cool way to have a patriotic tattoo that pisses off the mother-in-law at the same time.

tsacch · February 24, 2006 3:05AM

No other coin tattoos but I do have a buffalo nickles in my tile floor in the florida room i built for my wife.

PerryHall · February 24, 2006 3:34AM

I guess this means you'll have to start shaving your legs or at least one of them.

XpipedreamR · February 24, 2006 3:38AM

You collect the colorized Bust Halves from Shop at Home???

Craton · February 24, 2006 3:41AM

WAY cool!!!

chabot510 · February 24, 2006 3:44AM

i think that toning is AT

Cladiator · February 24, 2006 4:06AM

You ever cut yourself over that tattoo and it'll look like die cracks after it heals

JRocco · February 24, 2006 4:39AM

Should have shortened one of those arrows, then we could have given you an Overton number

airplanenut · February 24, 2006 4:55AM

When do you tattoo on the obverse?

easy....put some droppings under the eagle.

solid · February 24, 2006 5:02AM

Very cool eagle...and, you beat me to it! I have an idea for mine and was going to do
get it done last year, but just ran out of time. This year, for sure.

AU58WALKERS · February 24, 2006 5:50AM

Very nice! I like it.

100proof1957 · February 24, 2006 5:51AM

i collect special olympic commems !

tsacch · February 24, 2006 6:50AM

I was going to do the morgan eagle reverse, but I like the bust reverse better.

No obverse, i prefer my womem a bit more toned and fit...although she is a hottie.

Smitty79 · February 24, 2006 8:55AM

Dang, that turned out nice.

tsacch · February 24, 2006 9:17AM

my wife got a sweet lotus flower with an ohm symbol over and through it....very hot!!!!

dthigpen · February 24, 2006 9:17AM

You have serious issues. People with tattoos should be shot. Twice.

tsacch · February 24, 2006 9:18AM

dthigpen..........so how do you really feel?

dthigpen · February 24, 2006 9:19AM

<< dthigpen..........so how do you really feel? >>

Tattoos are of the devil.

dthigpen · February 24, 2006 9:22AM

Why would you defile the temple of the lord like that?

I've created a thread on the Open Forum to further discuss this topic of defilement.

Craton · February 24, 2006 9:27AM

<< Why would you defile the temple of the lord like that? >>

I can't understand it either............

tsacch · February 24, 2006 10:00AM

my body is my temple..............and I decorated it.

MORGANHUNTER2 · February 24, 2006 10:03AM

tsacch- that's one of those water color tats, right?

washes off in a few days...

It's nice- I agree should done it to be an Overton rarity.

michael · February 24, 2006 10:04AM

looks good to me

and the artist that did it

it is an above average job in fact a really nice job!!!!!!

and what i really like about it is that it has that early 19th century look to it like it is from a bust half

a superb piece of americana

tsacch · February 24, 2006 10:04AM

if you look close, I took some artistic liberty and added tail feathers...and yes some arrows are shorter......so it is probably an overton....i will try to post the real coin if i get a chance. 1812 MS 62 NGC and toning nicely.

It is also in honor of our country and the men and women who fight and fought for us.

tsacch · February 24, 2006 10:05AM

oh its real...starting to flake and scab a tiny bit now.

I like the second line better- has more meaning.

tsacch · February 24, 2006 10:14AM

<< I like the second line better- has more meaning. >>

I did think of my buddy who is on the USS Eisenhower while i was being inked

My mother in law will be more upset about her daughters tat on her back. they are Jewish and I am Italian......Jews arent supposed to have tattoos...cant be buried in a Jewish cemetary now.

tsacch · February 24, 2006 11:12AM

Here are my others

My left arm

My right arm

mozin · February 24, 2006 11:49AM

Sorry man, I am with the crowd that thinks it is wrong to put tattoos on the human body.

I also believe it is your right to believe what you want in this good old USA.

tsacch · February 24, 2006 11:52AM

Mozin, Cool man. Its a very personal belief and something that no one forces on anyone else. Its not like going to the store breaking a ten and getting coins in change....forced to accept.

mozin · February 24, 2006 12:38PM

tsacch,

I did not know the Jewish faith was against body tattoos.

The nuns I had at Catholic school sure taught me well. We even got into trouble when we wrote on our hands using ball-point pens. The nuns used wooden paddles back in those days. I think I had my name on one.

A couple of my Corvette friends went on a cruise to Vancouver, B.C., about three years ago. Of course, the boys got snockered and ended up at the tattoo parlor. Both men ended up with Corvette tattoos placed just where your eagle sits. Both wives were livid.

You do have a nice looking Bust Half eagle on your calf. You probably should shave those legs below the knee.

Hyperion · February 24, 2006 12:53PM

what I want to know is who is going to get a tatoo of the coin Marty loves ??!?!?
not I

Heywood · February 24, 2006 1:56PM

Nice Ink-
I wouldn't get one myself, but if you like them, it is pretty good looking.

Good thing you aren't a fan of the Eunice Shriver commem!

tsacch · February 24, 2006 7:27PM

Marty has to get that tattoo.....one dooodad on my body is enough.............and its in the flesh, not ink

NEWP....Check out the Bust half tattoo
