school girl pattern dollar by billzach

this is my latest school girl pattern dollar and the last one i,ll carve this year....it is deeply engraved with my billzach z and numbered on reverse to prevent someone passing it off to a new collector as the real thing..it took about 20 hours to carve it..also i toned it lightly..count the beads in necklace , there are 13 which is what the original has..

Um... Isn't that against the law or something? At least I think that is what the judge said.

Billzach do you work for the mint? If not, why not?

the mint has a program for new designs from engravers, but they require a lot of degrees, i,m a ky hillbilly with a engraving school degree, but no college degrees...

this carving was a commisioned carving for a west coast pattern dollar collector...

 

i would take a ky. hillbilly with talent over the college degreed engraver that made the wisconsin quarter any day

 

And I'd take the Wisconsin quarter designer over the Florida....if billzach wasn't available.

 

Hey Bill....are you going to be at the Coin Show in Jeffersonvile IN...its right by the border of KY??
