 I'm not sure what to say about these other than why?  |

I have a similar box of Canadian LC's, holed, polished, bent etc. The question is what to do with them? I sold many of the key dates as hole filler's but I could probably still put together "Canada's ugliest large cent collection" and someone would probably want it.

I always wondered who bought this stuff. Now I know.

Holed coins deserve preservation as much as any other. Their stories are probably even more interesting than their whole peers. They have a small but extremely dedicated following, and I admire those people. Their outlook is similar to my love of 1921 Morgans.  |

When I spot a large cent with a square hole from a nail in a dealer's junk bin, I'm always tempted to grab it - the history is cool - but someone always beats me to it |

Wait, you have a box of holed Large Cents and a box of normal ones?
Where are you getting all these Large cents?

Like I said, I "used" to buy every large cent group lot that I saw, but I no longer make any purchases with "holed" coins.

A. Gentlemen in my coin club has a holed large cent with teeth cut in the edge that was used to replace a missing gear in an old clock. You never no what some of these coins have been through!

To tell you the truth; I actually like your collection of holed large cents. something different for a change. the history behind them would be amassing . especially if they are really old.
