I wouldn't say that my first attempt at coin carving was a total disaster but it certainly did not turn out the way I would have liked. This is my second coin and I think the result was significantly better. I know that there is much more room for improvement, but I am hoping that by the time I get through this roll of buffalo nickels they will look a bit more presentable. Constructive criticism from you coin cutters will be greatly appreciated. Please let me know what I did right, if anything, and what I did wrong. I do know that the brim of the hat on the front is not long enough, but it seemed like I was going to get into the word "liberty" if I made it much bigger. Better planing would perhaps solve that problem.
