Coins' works are featured in the American Folk Art Museum. After retiring from a career of farming and working in a tobacco warehouse, Raymond Coins found he was bored and restless. So the Virginia-born citizen of rural North Carolina started carving stones in imitation of the Native American arrowheads, tomahawks, and other similar items.

No condition concerns.
