Not a government issue. "Hobo nickels" are a folk-art tradition dating to the late 19th century, in which itinerant carvers — and later skilled engravers — reworked existing coin blanks into new compositions using hand tools. This piece, struck in steel at these dimensions, is almost certainly a modern fantasy token in that aesthetic tradition rather than a carved original, which would have used a genuine circulating coin as its substrate. No U.S. Mint has ever produced a "Hobo Reapers" dollar.
