murrellington Pillar of the Community United States 3276 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 3:43 pm I've always loved coins and I'm born and raised in San Diego. What better tattoo to get than one modeled after the San Diego Half dollar? Report this Post to the Staff

murrellington Pillar of the Community United States 3276 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 3:45 pm Can't believe I don't own the coin anymore. I'll soon be posting a WTB ad for one. Also in the works: getting the images on the reverse of the coin tattooed on the back of my leg. It's the tower and dome at Balboa Park. I live down the street and walk my dog there often.

TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 5:18 pm Very nice and well done tatoo! I have never gotten a One. Even during a crazy blackout weekend on liberty in the US Navy, I managed to deny the ink. I bet that cost more than my San Diego Half by quite a lot. Report this Post to the Staff
murrellington Pillar of the Community United States 3276 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 5:55 pm Yeah my grandpa was in the Navy for 35 years and he escaped with no ink as well... Guess it just isn't for some people. Report this Post to the Staff

PNWType Pillar of the Community United States 561 Posts	Posted 03/13/2021 9:40 pm Amazing result! And a great source coin too! I've been toying with the idea of adapting a coin design into a tat for awhile, probably never will myself, but the idea sure is fun Report this Post to the Staff
