<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 2102522, member: 72790&quot;]I have never found older holed coins unattractive. Knowing that holing coins was a common practice for wearing them, not just as jewelry but, in a day before pockets were common in clothing,&nbsp; as convenient storage, they tell an interesting story. The same for considerable wear. For me much of the collecting of coins is an historical romance. When I hold (and with these coins you can physically touch them) I like to ponder the questions of who else held these coins, what did they spend them on, what stories could they tell if they could speak. A BU coin, for me, though it looks good, is sterile of this kind of romantic history. Holes and wear are no problem for me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
