sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 02/08/2012 9:20 pm I have a few U.S. 19th century small silver coins with holes. Dissapointing. Why is that so? Report this Post to the Staff
cmajlz Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 02/08/2012 9:51 pm I've read that at one time some people threaded string/twine through the hole then used the string to tie the coins to their waist so as not to lose the money. Guess if you had holes in your pocket this would be one way of not losing the money. Report this Post to the Staff
