<p>[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 147595, member: 669"]General usage in the numismatic community is that "holed coin" means a coin minted without a hole in which one has been drilled or punched. Coins minted with an open center (Chinese/Japanese/Anamese cash coins cast for over a millenium, Japanese 5 and 50 yen coins in current circulation, etc.) are not usually referred to that way, and the only effect those holes have on grading is that they (almost) double the amount of rim area that is subject to getting dings. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
