Hobo Nickel

[Keith]

Hi All,
Im new here.
Glad I found this forum, I have really learned alot.
I have been carving these hobo nickels since about 2002.
They are fun to do and can become very addictive.
Thanks,
Keith Pedersen

The earring is 22kt gold and the balls on the hat are copper.
You can see my website for more coins I carved.

Now I know why your name sounded familiar. I stumbled onto your site just last week.
Working with "Big Daddy" is credetials enough to lend credibility ,to a guy who has been into Hot Rods since Car Craft & Hotrod Magazines came in 5"X7" format. Think I was about 10 when I started reading them at the soda fountain at Weiricks Drug.
