This fabulous work was created by Ron Landis and is a centennial (1913-2013) carving and tribute to Bo’s dicer nickel. This is Lot 130 in the upcoming OHNS auction. See the lot descriptions for more information. There are some other really fantastic modern carvings in Auction 21 including Aleksey Saburov’s Centennial Carving (Lot 127) and two by Lee Griffiths (Lots 128 & 129). Auction 21 has something for everyone. There are many other superb modern and classic carvings; some classic carvings for the newer or budget minded collector; and there are several lots that should interest the token collectors. IwanttothankChrisDempseyforcreatingthefrontpagebannerandthecollageofhobonickels(allofwhichcanbe found as lots in Auction 21). This year’s auction marks a number of behind the scenes changes. Except for a few lots with older QD forms, all of this year’s lots have digital photograph images. I want to thank Marc Banks for his fine photographs.
