Let's see the Half dime. The POSITION of the "drill" mark argues that it is a test mark and not an attempt to hole a coin for adornment.
If anyone really wants to discuss that rediculous half disme further, please start a new thread. It’s way off topic here.
My takeaways from this thread. This DDO is a really notable DDO amougst all DDO's. It's cool as heck. It's friggin rare. Very high R6. Most examples have been mucked with (to varying degrees...some are not that bad). To date, only 3 unmucked coins are known (this includes one beautiful chop marked coin). Three coins put it at a high R7. All that means is that I'm celebrating this coin. Well done.
