Just got this one today as a prize from dwhiz's recent contest.

 

Wow, that's a nice coin! On a silver dollar and beautiful work.

 

I sold this a while back, but the quality of the work was outstanding.

 

This one is a little creepy . . . . . . . .

Looks like the Cheshire Cat.

 

A couple new arrivals from my favorite nickel artist - SteveOrino


The one on the right is an older carving of his I found on Ebay. Gotta love that Silver Jefferson War Nickel . . . . . . .




"Tecumbalam" and "Cuz'n Barry"

That Jefferson is killer.

​

Or, "Uncle Hellboy" . . . ?

Of course, the wait for THESE to come in is just killing me . . . . . .
