[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 5186334, member: 10461"]No museum would want it. It's in an old Dobbs hatbox at the top of my closet, with no coins on it at the moment. But I've been sort of ([I]very[/I] casually) gathering more holeys over the past few years. I'm pinning them on a cork board for the time being. Eventually the hat will be repopulated. I don't know about the vest. [IMG]https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/1x/1ftm3ca44ux6.jpeg[/IMG] The Gothic florin on the left side of the picture below is likely the sole survivor of the original Holey Coin Vest.

This one is special because it has a historically identifiable person's name and birthdate on it, plus the host coin is a high-details Bust half, which is nice.
