Thought this was pretty cool! Coyote carved out of an IHC.
If this would have been an 1877, I would have screamed

That's amazing.

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

The detail is incredible.

Thanks for posting the photo.

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!

Was this done with a Laser etcher or WaterJet?
