a large stone representation of a fish, with distinguishing details carved on both sides, the flat bottom is signed "W R COINS".

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.
Private Collection. Purchased from the artist by the consignor in 1986.
