Here are a couple of coins from a project I finished. A lot of fun doing these.

Are those gold nuggets in the prospectors pan? Beautiful work Lee.

Isn't your engraving almost good enough to be allowed into a genuine shop? No more garage work for you!! Theses are stunning! Thanks for sharing (and making me put my coins back in the bag. I need to rethink them).

Fantastic coins, Lee!! I love 'em both, but the gold panner is just out of this world!!

Lee,
Exceptional work ! Great use of the eagles wingtip on the miner. Why can't I think of those things? I love the guy panning for gold, excellent design and use of space, but my favorite is the locomotive. The locomotive is very dramatic and powerful, something that appeals to me. Steve

I like the prosepector, but the hobo under the bridge nails the second one for me.

lee: a critique was not sought-- but i'm giving one anyway. you should have inlaid some fools gold into that gents pan !
i really love the locomotive- esp the smoke bellowing out of the stack. and yes, you need to get a real studio and give up the garage.

Here are a couple more.

Glenn, those are gold nuggets in the pan.
Steve, I agree about the wings. They can be a real head-scratcher.

Thanks to all for the comments. Me and the garage. At least my family knows where to find me.
