<p>[QUOTE=&quot;VistaCruiser69, post: 24856537, member: 107016&quot;]The edges around the impact point are too sharp &amp; defined.&nbsp; I&#039;d say someone used a punch or similar tool that&#039;s used to punch holes in metal.&nbsp; During my childhood, we shot so many coins with pellet and bb guns, the damage is unmistakenly recognizable.&nbsp; The impact point would be surrounded by a more of a bent metal physical appearance, rather than a very sharp/defined area as this coin displays.</p><p><br /></p><p>When shot with a pellet or bb gun, the material around the impact point also absorbs a lot of the energy from the projectile.&nbsp; This causes the coins material around the impact point to bend in the same direction that the projectile was traveling.</p><p><br /></p><p>On this coin, there is no evidence of material around the impact point being subjected to energy, only restricted to the damaged area itself.&nbsp; For this reason, a punch resting against the coin and being hit with a hammer or a tool specifically used to punch holes in metal is the only logical culprit.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1593456[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
