We All Take Coins For Granted,

but here is a different take on them,

 many people in the world  consider Russian artist Roman Booteen a master at hand-engraving coins,

 and it is easy to see why, 

 his coins are stunningly beautiful, but what most people don’t know is that many of his masterpieces also feature jaw-dropping mechanical surprises,

 it is easy to see why one of Roman’s latest creations is a prime example of why people are so blown away by his skill, it is a silver dollar featuring the  detailed carving of a knight and woman looking at a indentation on a wall, in a video posted on his Instagram, the artist reveals that the knight’s sword is actually removable and can be inserted into a little notch on the edge of the coin to slide open the wall indent and reveal a golden chalice,

and this is just one of the cool things that Roman Booteen has made over the years, above the video of the coin, Roman Booteen has carved over 50 custom coins, but also specializes in cigarette lighter carvings, some of which are simply amazing, You can check out his most impressive creations on his Instagram, what a talent some people truly do have.
