Anyone have a coin tattoo on a body part? Have you ever thought about getting a coin tat?

About as close as i will ever get is my wife made me some Buffalo nickel curtains for my home office.

    Cant say that I have. Ive seen a few famous people tat a $100 series 1990 on their back. Came out looking good actually. If i was to do that I would have to do a large size national. Something of either rare bank or a home town bank note. Still thats too wild for my blood. I stick to my closet cent box searching

    Nope.
    Never will.
    Will never have ANY tattoos.

    That said, Dizzyfoxx is the one I think Athena may be thinking of.....he got a commem tattoo I believe.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    What a timely subject. At 53 years old I got my first tattoo just two months ago.

    Very nice interpretation of the original, color adds something to the design.

    No ink on me ...

    WOW. I hadn't even seen this thread before I went and got my second tattoo this past December. The Fugio seems to be the way to go as far as coin tats are concerned. I guess it's not all that original, but I enjoy telling folks at the gym from where my design came. I got to compare tats with a WWII vet who got his 70 years ago. Fun time! SO...here's mine. The artist was from Uruguay, so we went with a hybrid of Franklin's and a Uruguayan sun. Also, the pic is taken at an angle, and my letters aren't crooked. It kind of wraps around. The picture was taken right after I got inked, so it's a little gory.

    This is some kind of ironic juxtaposition for me. No, I do not have any tattoos.

    I actually have a coin tattoo....it's about 25 years old and I forgot I even had it, even after I started reading the thread...maybe I'll post a pic, I don't know if it's worth the hassle at the moment though.

    How can anyone forget that they have a tattoo? image

    PerryHall- it is easy to forget. I have 17 and had to count them just now. None can be seen when I dress in regular clothes and whatnot. Gte me in my birthday suit and I look like 2-PAC.

    I imagine that at least a few numismatically interested individuals seek to have their coin tats created using "double-dye."

    I have no tats and probably never will.

    I wanted the "mind your business." As history fans, we know what Ben had in mind with this phrase. The wife was afraid it would be misinterpreted as rude by some. Happy wife = happy life.

    No tats but I gave it some consideration periodically in the past.
