Thanks BB.
No hat but I'm going to slip this one in here anyway because I like it a lot. Looks like lots of contemplative thinking going on. Campfires & pipe smoking can do that to ya':

The term "hobo nickel" is a bit of a misnomer since coins of all denominations were fair game, but the U.S. "buffalo nickel" with it's large bas relief Indian head was favored for it's size, thickness, and relative softness.
The intricate detail some of these "artists" were able to achieve on such a small scale is impressive.

Wow, such detail!
Makes you wonder what would possess a person to do it.
