That is the website for the Original Hobo Nickel Society and the folks there are probably the best for attributing your Hobo Nickel. It is a pretty neat piece and could be old, not a modern carving. There are several known old time Hobo Nickel carvers whose pieces are widely collected and some very high prices can be paid for newly discovered pieces by one of these carvers. Bear in mind that there is only about a 10% chance that yours is one of those, but it would be worth checking out. Good Luck!
