Holed Coins
We have a few members (at least one anyway) who collect holed coins. Most of us collectors turn our noses up and quickly dismiss any coin with intended damage to it. Maybe “we” should rethink intentionally “damaged” coins.
Back in June of this year Coin World had an article about a holed 1792 half disme that sold at auction for $20,400. It was graded PCGS Very Good Details, Holed. Just a few months before it sold at the 2019 Fun Show for $18,000.
Maybe we should recheck all those damaged coins we come across. Putting them in a junk box could be a big ($$$) mistake. Just a thought!
