Coin Skull


Oscar Fox submitted this image of 4 skulls made of coins. He explains, "I'm still plugging away with my 365 day project Another Day Another Dollar and have reached day 256.  I made this skull of coins with you in mind and hope it may appeal to your skullyness. I only made the one skull but photographed it under different lighting to get the varying images. I'll try to incorporate at least one more Skull before we reach the journeys end."




These look like one of those games where you have to guess how much money is in the jar. This one however, has 256 coins. The shine on these is really nice. Reminds me of putting coins in jewelry cleaner while mom was soaking her jewelry, just to see what color it would turn. Rarely did they turn back to their original color. Normally, they tarnished in a rainbow of colors.

300. Three Hundred Dollar Skull

300 Arranged U.S. One Dollar Bills ( 29in x 42in [74cm x 107cm]). I can only imagine what the teller at the bank thought when I asked for 300 singles. Only 65 to go!

UPDATE: 10 of these bills were entered into the Where's George website and sent to my friend Phil. You can track them using their serial numbers: A71952100D, F79130190D, E93308768A, E65039934H, E06270752I, A61182676D, A26198175B, L84053716M, E21114490A, E22823252A

181. Skullar Bill

Folded U.S. One Dollar Bill. I made this on a plane somewhere in the air between Phoenix, Arizona and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and shot it on the tray table using just the reading light. The older gentleman sitting next to me seemed pretty baffled and I explained that I was making art, which seemed to satisfy him. Later he said, "At first I thought you might be crazy!", to which I responded, "The verdict is still out on that one."
