Some amazing Hobo/carved nickels

OK I have to admit when I started to look at these they blew my mind. The quality of these is insane. Not my coins, just my images. Some of these have gold or copper inlay. Enjoy!!

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

When looking at such skill I can't help think how many here do the same with the minute details we scrutinize over in coins. The attention we give a hobby that brings us great joy!
Too bad there are registry participants who don't share our enthusiasm and give the hobby a bad name.
Anyone thinking about buying a coin or a complete set from here or the BST forum is advised to always stop in here and use this site as a reference.
