Art Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Here's a Hobo nickel that I have in my collection. It's been recarved by Mike Pezak - he's pretty well known in the Hobo Nickel community and does wonderful work. Do you have any recarved coins in your collection that you'd like to share?

Ian Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 That's a very wierd design. Yep. I certainly can't say that I find it very aesthetically pleasing. No doubt someone somewhere would love it though........... Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drusus Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 I have two hobo nickels carved by bill Jameson, I love ancients and these were done along that theme: Centurion Emperor I count them as some of the nicest and most rare (unique) coins in my collection.

tmoneyeagles Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I dislike the hobo nickels, due to the buffalo nickel being one of my favorite coins. I don't like it that people made these coins, into what they call works of art I like some of the designs, that somewhat add to the native american aspect of the coin, but I dislike all the others Now, any other carving, on any other coin, is a work of art, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
