Raymond Coins   (1904-1998)

After retiring in 1976 as a farmer and a worker for local tobacco companies near Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Raymond Coins began making wood and stone carvings.  His subjects include "baby dolls" and angels carved from river stone, as well as religious themes in bas-relief.   His full-sized figures in cedar sometimes weigh over 700 pounds.
