fnd1234 Valued Member United States 142 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 8:05 pm I'm not sure what that means Report this Post to the Staff

AgHoarder Pillar of the Community Canada 818 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 8:56 pm he meant it looked like it was caused by a bb gun/pellet gun. I have no clue what might have caused that, bb seems very plausible. definitely doesn't looked like it was drilled though. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21637 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 8:58 pm silverwolf means it was shot at with a BB gun. Reminds me when I was a kid and had I a "Red Ryder" BB gun. Sorry AG, We must have been typing the same time Edited by JimmyD 07/15/2015 8:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff

AgHoarder Pillar of the Community Canada 818 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 9:26 pm don't own any halves yet from that era, too expensive for me. the owner of my LCS showed me a collection of George V halves he bought a few weeks back and none of them were lower than EF Your coin is much closer to my price range, thanks for sharing.

fnd1234 Valued Member United States 142 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 9:29 pm I inherited my grandfather from Canada's coin collection so I have quite a few old Canadian pieces. Report this Post to the Staff
AgHoarder Pillar of the Community Canada 818 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 9:32 pm sorry to hear about that but at least you're enjoying them! what did he collect? Report this Post to the Staff
fnd1234 Valued Member United States 142 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 9:41 pm Oh, just about anything from Canada or Netherlands it seems. Especially junk silver. Oh, and TONS of wheat pennies. XD It also seems like he would buy a bunch of world grab bags because there was an entire bag filled with common world coins. He has a few Whitman books he's been putting coins in too with a filled small cents book (1920-1960). He seemed to be more of a "quantity over quality" type of guy.

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 07/16/2015 05:51 am Yeah.. BB or Pellet gun shot like the others said. And.. flatten that staple out before it comes in contact with another coin. Report this Post to the Staff
