If you're a holey collector, you may never get another chance to pick-up a 1909-S Lincoln. This was in a bag of stuff that I bought and I was as shocked to see it as you are to read about it. It has Fine+details. The hole is through the "W" in WE. It also has some gangrene on both sides. The hole has some green in it too which makes it appear to have been holed some time ago.
#2 is an 1858 FE Cent. This is in Poor condition with hole drilled at the rim between 4 and 5 o'clock.
#3 is a 1799 1/2 Skilling which I believe is Swedish. This too is in Fair/Poor condition. Its wafer thin with a hole that looks like it was driven with a nail rather than drilled. It looks like they started to punch a hole in the middle, got most of the way through, then flipped it over and completed the job in a different spot near the rim.
#4 is a 1960 S. Africa 1/4 penny. This would have been in AU if not for the hole through the "196" of the date.
If you're interested in any of these, please PM me with an offer. Sorry, no pictures are available. Only a sense of helpfulness to you "holey guys" has led me to list these at all.
