A New coin by Billzach and I

[threefingerdave]

Greetings
Bill Jameson ( Billzach)
emailed me after my last coin... the Cook
He said he had an idea for one and wanted to know if i would like to do a coin with him
well naturally i said YES!!!!!!!!!!
he did the nose, lips and Beard and i did the hair and hat
it is a real honor for me to be asked by one of the best coin carvers to do a joint coin with him.
To study it under the scope opens up a whole new world of coin carving to me
To all that are carving coins or want to give it a try I would highly recommend trying to get ahold of one of the better coin carvers coins just so you can study it
Please keep Bill and his family in your prayers as there are some things going on in his family
I Hope you like the coin as much as i do and please feel free to post comments
Thanks
Dave

Now you did it Dave, you ruined the lefthandedness of the coin.
Looks good I like the idea he had.
Now you have to take him up on it when he wants to do a 2 sided.
Keep posting. Keep carving!

Maybe he burned the d o n u t s. But what a unique concept for a "duet carving" as someone put it. thumbs up
