HOBO coin grips

[MudBugjr]

Had to try my hand at a set of coins in my defender's grips I picked up. These are Buffalo Nickels that are engraved called Hobo Nickels. Really like the grips better than the rubber ones that came from the factory.

They do the buffalo side as well into a skeleton. Pretty cool but I wanted the same on both sides.

Hobo coins are awesome art.

I have some John Wayne, Willy, and some others, even some Exonumia.

I have found that some are stamped and not engraved. The guy that did mine engraves a couple different coins. Really cool what people can do with them for sure.
