Anyone found a hobo nickel?

I never knew this existed. Now that’s a part of history you don’t hear about everyday. I love the idea. Anyone had the luck of swinging over one and getting it? I looked and they’re not all skull altered art. They could be other portraits.

I've detected Hobo encampment. Not even a coin was found.
It would be top shelf recovery to ever dig a real one.

There's new versions out there in the marketplace now-knockoffs.

I’ve seen them on-line, but haven’t found one. Some are extremely cool.

I've never found one, but it would be very neat to do so.

I knew about them but never came across one. I do have a counterfeit nickel.

found pics of my Penny.
The reverse was ground off

Naturally I Cannot Prove a Hobo Did it, But I was told Because it was found near the Railroad it is Possible.
Date appears to be 1960 ? but
Turning it Sideways it takes on a different image,
only thing I Can think Saturn Maybe
however may be pareidolia

or

I found one ........If you guys want to see it it will take some time to locate...It was found around 1982.. I knew what it was as soon as I saw it...... Now you guys are going to make me try and locate it.... Well as I write this I guess I need to see it once again..... Give me a day or two and I will see if I can come up with it..
