ichthy New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/03/2010 10:39 pm I found this coin in my old box of stuff as well. I have no knowledge about this coin or why it has a bullet hole in it. Does anybody have any ideas what it is? Is it even worth keeping a shot coin? Thanks for any help if possible. Moved to Classic US coins forum -Sap Report this Post to the Staff

Nic Pillar of the Community Philippines 1156 Posts	Posted 07/04/2010 11:53 pm 90% silver at 6.25gram weight, less the hole, about 5.80gram? I'd place it in my keyring holder, after 3 months in the pocket it'll be shiney once more Report this Post to the Staff
ichthy New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/05/2010 9:33 pm Thanks for the replies. At least it's good for its silver value. I was thinking about investing in silver bullion anyway. =P Nic, I took your advice and put it on my keychain. Let's see how long before it's shiny once more. Report this Post to the Staff
