The price of nickels has gone up a lot! They made billions of them so one carver wont really affect the price much. I am tired of the price of nickels also so I am carving more cents, dimes, and quarters. I am also doing detailed commision engravings on Trade dollars, Morgan Dollars, Peace...
Its a patent violation of the airgraver. Its also not very well built and wont last. Its not worth the bother. My uncles friend bought one but rarely used it. I looked at it and fired it up and it was horrible.
