Naturally-occurring holey Peace dollar

cmerlo1cmerlo1 Posts: 7,963 ✭✭✭✭✭
I found this in the Peace dollar bucket at the B&M yesterday- I finally got to go through the dollars before someone came in and bought them all (that has been happening quite regularly lately, which has put a damper on my VAMming). This looks to be struck on a flawed planchet- the flaw goes all the way through the coin, producing a naturally-occurring hole you can see through!

    A little hydrogen peroxide, ointment, antibiotics and gauze should do the trick! image
