    I dislike it. Never really found hobo nickels that amazing. Yes, I think the time and effort that went into making them was amazing, but most of the time, the new design is a disgrace to the original buffalo nickel. There are some designs that do look kinda cool, and BilZach posts some pretty cool ones here, but I enjoy the carvings of the other denominations, more than the buffalo nickel.
    BTW, nice Aunt of yours.

    I have always looked on these as defacing an otherwise classic coin. Really good art work, though.
