Well Dave, you have me stumped on this one, since unloading my world coins(except silver), tokens and medals in 2016, don't have much of anything left. When I get them, I give them! Sooo.....in the hopes I'll receive a half point participation prize...my fragile self-esteem may greatly damaged if you don't! I present a non-jewely ready coin with TWO holes, most likely used as s "whizzer", a child's toy, with string through the holes, made noise!   |

I do not have many tokens, but out of all the ones I own, I think this one is my favourite. It also just happens to be the token I own with the most holes.  I found it listed somewhere as a Manitoba transit token from 1932. |

Nice one! It'll be hard to beat 4 holes.

I am not sure what the expected answer is, but I found this interesting topic about coins being nailed to door jambs (and many other things): http://goccf.com/t/61487A response that caught my eye as to specifics is this: http://goccf.com/t/61487&whichpage=2#483527I am not sure if intentionally damaging a coin for a customary purpose deserves a point or not.  Edit: I haven't posted an entry, yet, but I will in the next couple days. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
