Lot Title:	Four "hobo" nickels
Lot Number:	176
Description:	Andrew Davidon Consignment. Can I buy a nickel? “Hobo Nickels” may be the only example within United States numismatics where carving on a coin may actually improve its value. There are four such examples in this group lot that includes two engraved 1913-D Type 1, a 1914, and a dateless issue. Similar carvings on each example may suggest that these were all done at a similar point in time (ck)?
Estimate:	$825-$925

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
