ThomasJefferson Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 09/05/2012 10:28 pm With a mintage of just ten thousand I was pleased to acquire this issue in any condition. Most who have seen the coin are in favor of plugging the hole while I consider it part of the history of the coin and an irreversible alteration besides. My questions regarding this piece are as follows: 1. As I have yet to see a holed, plugged or otherwise altered coin in an ICCS holder, I'm wondering if ICCS will certify this coin? 2. Which details grade would you assign? Despite the hole, solder and discoloration I believe the coin is still an attractive piece that has lost none of its identity.

54dollarcoin Valued Member Canada 475 Posts	Posted 09/05/2012 10:37 pm ICCS will NOT cerify the coin with the hole in it ,would consider it too badly damaged. Too bad it is holed a scarce coin indeed. Consider it a space filler till a better one comes along. As to NET grade details VG8. I just bought a fabulous NFLD collection on the weekend Bretons , decimal , and gold! Too bad there are NO customers!~! Report this Post to the Staff

25 cent piece New Member Canada 24 Posts	Posted 09/05/2012 11:03 pm It looks like that hole is old. I wouldn't do anything to it. It went down a different path. If coins could talk, this one would spin a tale. Report this Post to the Staff
