Shinderliter New Member United States 0 Posts	Posted Today 1H 39M ago * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Hello, I'm somewhat new here with only a post or two under my belt. I happened across this 51S Lincoln a few years back, and thought someone must have wanted a hole there to hang from necklace. So I put it with my damaged coins. Not sure how it got out, but it was sitting on my desk, and I just so happened to hot glue a small magnifying glass onto the back of my iPhone, and put the penny under it and to my surprise, what I thought was a damaged coin, might not be. Could you please take a look at it. I don't want to speculate what it might be, this is why I came here. Look forward to the feedback. If it is an error, should I grade it for max profit, or sell it raw? Just asking. Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25422 Posts	Posted Today 18M ago to the CCF, Shinderliter! Unfortunately, I agree with Greasy Fingers - your coin is not an error. Were it mine, I would complete that person's task by drilling that hole. Then you could put it on your key ring.

I agree with Greasy Fingers above - it looks like someone took a cut nail (a square shaped nail) and drove it through your cent. I also moved your post to the proper area to get more eyes on it too.
