In 1999, I cut this Beaver out of a Canadian Nickel and soldered a Tie Tack Pin to the reverse. I put it up on eBay as a joke for $2. Seven days later a couple of MIT students had out bid each other to $54. Soon after I had regular sales to MIT and won the "Busy Beaver" award with the scholarship commitee. Soon they gave pins to all their supporters for donating and that is how Coin Cut Art was started as a business. Still an attractive conversation piece, the Nickel hasn't changed. This is the Cut-Out only and includes a black velveteen bag for safekeeping...most common for Golf Markers.
