Using clad coin(coin made from multiple layers of metal), artist Paolo Curcio is able to carve impressively detailed miniature sculptures into it. He takes existing coins and transforming them into something completely different by strategically whittling away the surfaces to reveal different colored details and backgrounds. Curcio’s coins feature intricately detailed hobos, skulls and figures from literature and pop culture. You can see much more of his work over on his website and if you want to collect those coins, keep an eye on his ebay page.
