<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ajm229, post: 58463, member: 3350&quot;]I just wanted to reiterate Art&#039;s point here that MANY people collect SPECIFICALLY holed coins! Personally, I think the holes can sometimes enhance the eye appeal of the coin, provided they&#039;re in a spot that doesn&#039;t take much if anything off the images on the coin. It&#039;s kind of like toning. Some people won&#039;t TOUCH a toned coin, and some people love the different hues one can bring; some people wouldn&#039;t dream of owning a holed coin, and others wouldn&#039;t care.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you like the coin, and would like to buy it, especially if it looks good to YOU, then I&#039;d go for it.</p><p><br /></p><p>And just as a sidenote, from my personal point of view, I just want to say that I don&#039;t really like calling a hole &quot;damage&quot; specifically. It can sometimes enhance a coin&#039;s likeability. Some collectors use the term like a student might say &quot;homework.&quot; I just think it should be noted that collectors of holed coins deserve to be respected as much as non-hole collectors.</p><p><br /></p><p>~AJ[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
