That is pretty cool! Looks like it was done from a mint coin. I like it.



...and congrats on becoming a Mod!

That's amazing.

It's making me think of 'The Call of the Wild'.

The detail is incredible.

Thanks for posting the photo.
It wasn't that long ago when I thought that 'mint error' meant that something was wrong with my candy.

It really is unbelievable how some of these turn out. That one does look like it came fresh off the line. Without knowing it was never an actual issue that could easily pass as a legit coin with how it looks

Super piece and ever so skillfully engraved. I'd be tempted to have it mounted on a tie bar!
