I actually own 2 of them in comparable grade and was able to get them for much cheaper because of it. I've probably seen half a dozen others and they tend to be just a single indent about this size located above the head. I liken it to a chop mark and helps give me some belief in authenticity.

As spots I could see it grading, but not with deliberate, intentional damage. Edited by Conder101 08/16/2018 09:41 am Report this Post to the Staff

machine20 Pillar of the Community United States 1280 Posts	Posted 10/29/2018 12:15 pm Here's another "started hole" near the same location. wonder if these are like chop marks to verify composition. why else would they not be drilled all the way through? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Estate-Fin...LH_Auction=1 Report this Post to the Staff
