Funny you should say that, Monk...I have long been a Billzach fan, and actually drove up to Gatlinburg 3 days ago specifically to meet Bill...no doubt his coinwork has had an influence on mine. Thanks for the kind words.
you're so right. all seem to have an appeal to me, whether a technically minted look,, or a "just done with a rusty nail" appearance.Superb work my friend! Love it!
By the way i have to disagree about a hobo nickel have to appere " Just Minted" like in all i like see time to time the "hand made mark" and recognice that is carved and not maked with a press, exist a lot of styles in hobo nickels and all are beatyfull i think coming from something that is a folk type art , perfection is cool, imperfection make them unique
