Unusual $ 1 coin with a secret mechanism that causes the palm to squeeze and unclench the sword.
Unusual $ 1 coin with a secret mechanism that causes the palm to squeeze and unclench the sword.
The ancient art of the hobo nickel has been around since the 18th century, but Russian artist Roman Booteen keeps the craft alive with his extraordinary coin carving designs. From a gold bug with moving wings to a mechanical beating heart, Booteen is a modern master at turning old coins into extraordinary bas relief sculptures. His latest design is no exception—he’s meticulously modified a U.S. dollar coin (from 1921) to feature a 3D glove and sword with a secret mechanism.
Hand-cut and engraved from the center of the coin, Booteen's incredibly intricate design features a metal armor glove with decorative, hand-engraved details. The glove is holding onto a sword that seems to be plunged into the side of the coin. The piece is already impressive as a still sculpture; however, once the hidden button on the outer edge of the coin is pressed, the metal components come to life. An integrated spring allows the fingers of the glove to move, as if it’s gasping the sword’s handle.
Check out Booteen’s incredible hobo nickel below.

The Horror of Teaching Critical Race Theory to children.President Donald Trump tore into President Joe Biden for embracing “critical race theory”—a loosely defined academic framework that’s become the newest front in the culture wars—and went as far as to claim teaching the theory verges on “psychological abuse.”“Students are being subjected to a new curriculum designed to brainwash them,” Trump claimed in an op-ed published on RealClearPolitics’ website, calling critical race theory “twisted” and “completely antithetical to everything that normal Americans of any color would wish to teach their children.”
