This is the second of a series of 5 silver quarters i,m carving for a collector, they all will have the same clothing, but each will have different face, hat, etc...
Is there special tools you use to do the hobo's? I have tinkered around with it a bit but would like more infor of how you do it. Tdec1000
I use the same tools as the knife and gun engravers use, microscope, gravers, sanding stones, engraver,s vise..But when i started i only used a small hammer, very small chisel, opivisor, etc..The way to start carving coins, unless you,ve a extra 7 to 8 thousand dollars to spend start with the basics and sell your carvings and invest the money in better tools..Anyone who has a desire to carve coins can hollar at me anytime...
GREAT looking coin Bill! Awesome!! Wish I had the talent to do something like that! Again, fantastic! swick
