HOBO NICKEL COIN Peace Dollar 1882 LURE Hand Engraved by StephenXu

StephenXu

This coin is a hand-engraved “hobo nickel” artwork titled Lure, created by the artist Stephen Xu.

The base coin is an 1882 Morgan Dollar, carved and modified to create a detailed and expressive scene.

Front (Obverse) – Engraved Artwork

The original profile of Lady Liberty has been completely transformed into a dramatic engraving showing two characters:

  • A devil-like figure with horns, pointed ears, and a muscular torso stands in the foreground, holding a long pointed tool.
  • A second character, appearing distressed or entranced, leans forward while the devil manipulates the tool near their face.
  • The background is carved with swirling circular patterns and stylized moons or celestial shapes.
  • Small colored inlays are present near the bottom—green and red stones—adding contrast to the monochromatic relief.
  • The original coin date, 1882, remains at the bottom, integrated into the artwork.
  • Tiny details such as a bottle labeled “Wine Stx”, a cork, and small objects on the table create a narrative, enhancing the theme of temptation or manipulation.

The engraving is highly detailed, with deep relief work and intricate textures.

Back (Reverse) – Original Coin

The reverse side remains unaltered, showing the standard design of a Peace Dollar (used as a replacement back by the artist):

  • A perched eagle facing right.
  • Rays extending upward.
  • The inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “ONE DOLLAR,” and “PEACE.”
