The base for this design was the 1937 Buffalo Nickel. Mr. The's hobo Nickels typically yield between $500 and $2,500 per one-sided design.The hobo nickel is a coin that has had its original artwork altered into a new design by the homeless, often referred to as hobos, and then sold to make money. The U.S. nickel is a favorite coin to use due to the softness, size and thickness of the coin. When the Buffalo nickel, or Indian Head, was introduced in 1913, it became popular among coin engravers. The large Native American head gave the artists a large template to work from that allowed finer detail work to be done. With this large template to work from, the hobo nickel became highly popular. Due to the softness of the metal in the nickel, hobo nickel tools could be made from any crude tool that could make a scratch, displace or punch into the coin.The artwork of each hobo nickel is unique. Some hobo nickel artists would repeat specific designs due to their popularity, but most tried to create something new with each coin. Whether you are a veteran hobo nickel collector, or you are looking to start a hobo nickel collectionCOA's will Vary Antiquing: The Process of antiquing a silver coin is a labor intensive and arduous task that adds cost and alters the finish of a silver piece of art. Some ask why would you go to the expense of this and change the mirror like finish of a proof coin, statue, or artifact. The answer is different for most people, but for me it is simply, it draws out the detail of complex and art intensive designs. Take a look at any of my coins in proof and antique finishes, and I believe you will find that the design "pops" in comparison. So my personal preference has developed into the embelishments offered by antiquing. This does not diminish the value of the piece, quite the contrary, it adds value. I do not want this for every piece that I keep, but the coins which are in my albums and I show and admire personally, I prefer the antiqued over a plain proof. This is just my two cents and is offered for your consideration. ADD ME TO YOUR FAVORITES !! Check Out My Other Listings and Auctions for Other Unique and Low Mintage Silver Rounds.
