Imagine the time to cut them. I must take weeks, and the cuts must be precise.

These look cool. I could consider it art. I think that is "sculpting", the second link definitely better than the first. Not worth 26K to me though, maybe 5-10 bucks sadly is what I would pay.

The steel cent massacre is just sad. Makes me depressed. Yes, while I understand steel cents are common and cheap, there are just some coins one shouldn't destroy (and I count '43's in that category). (To be honest, that kind of turns me off to all of his art)

However, prior to seeing that, I was a little intrigued. The quarter ones are especially interesting, I'm still trying to figure out how he did one of them.

But...26K? I'd much rather spend that on some top of the pop charts classic coins before I'd ever consider spending it on something that is just "interesting" and "neat".

Not coin related, but how about this artist's "Messy Bed" that sold for $4.4 million dollars.

You could get a nice 1913 Liberty nickel for that money.
