Does that mean you are just a millionaire? If so, please adopt me. I don't eat much.
You can afford to pay 5K for it just being a millionaire. Lots left over.

But still consider adopting me, OK?




Well just cause you COULD spend 5k on a coin doesn't mean you should lol. But then again if I can get a coin for 5000 that I KNOW I can resell for 5500 or more with ease, darn right ill buy it hehe.

Hello all. This is my first attempt at a hobo nickel. I saw this thread and got inspired, so I dug out my Dremel tool and the nearest unfortunate nickel. It's not finished. I need to go to the hardware store and get some more attachments, but this is a sort of 'rough draft' of the "Nuclear Nickel". I wish I had a spare 1945 nickel lying around for this... Anyways, I tried to keep the wording intact (I thought it added an element of irony to it). I also tried to keep the 'cap' of the cloud as smooth and shiny as possible to give it a sort of glowing appearance. Input please?
