    Thanks for posting. I had never heard of Mel Wacks, so, as always, it's nice to learn something new!

    I've got one of his I've been meaning to submit for grading. A Papal visit, if I recall. Gotta go dig to find it - I bought it about a decade ago & have no idea where I stashed it.

    Very cool overstrikes, and increasingly collectable. His work reminds me a lot of what Daniel Carr is doing with Moonlight Mint.

    I have a bunch of these but none graded. The statue of liberty wasn’t done by Wacks.

    Here are some poor photos of a few.
