    Don't know what to make of this holed guy. A neat piece in my opinion. If it isn't rare I might make a necklace out of it.

    I purchased it in a collection that came into my store. He said that he wore it as a necklace as a boy. I didn't know what it was worth but I bought a bunch of foreign coins and bullion coins and I just added it into the whole lot.
