[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2791433, member: 1892"]I must disagree, on both counts. That hole would be [B]impossible[/B] to fabricate without visibly moving metal around somewhere. The edges all around it are sharp, and there is no visible distortion of adjacent letters or fields. I don't see a [B]chance[/B] of this happening anytime except in the moment of strike. And I don't believe there's any generalized rule which applies to where a fragment of something about to be struck-through happens to land on a planchet. Thirdly, I'm sure Bill Fivaz has been fooled by features on a coin, but I doubt that's happened within the last few decades. :) [USER=78244]@TypeCoin971793[/USER], I'm interested in those two diagonal gouges on the neck. Could you look into them more closely and report back your impressions?[/QUOTE]
