Hobo Nickel:
The “Hobo Nickel” in the United States is a special type of coin, which originated during the Great Depression in the early 20th century. During that period, the economy was in recession and society was in flux, resulting in a large number of people losing their jobs and becoming homeless hobos. Some people with artistic talent or strong hands-on skills began carving images on coins, giving these coins a second life, and making them possess artistic value, which they used to pay for their accommodation and food.
These coins typically have a rather flamboyant style of painting, and come in multiple shapes and styles. As time passed, these coins gradually made their way onto the artistic stage, and became a complete category of handicrafts in the 1970s. In the 1980s, coin collector Del Romines published “HOBO NICKELS”, marking the art of hobo nickels as a complete category of handicrafts.
