_________________________________________________________________________

ALL COINS IN THIS SALE ARE HOLED!!! That fact will not necessarily

be repeated at each lot. Most are from one collector who seemed to love

holed coins. Well, it's true you can get 98% of the coin for, usually, a fraction

of the price. Prices listed are STARTING BIDS, I have tried to make them

cheap, often around bullion value. You can bid with cents. Bids will be

reduced (example: You bid $1000, next highest bid is $50, you pay $55.)
Postage extra; New Yorkers pay sales tax. Have fun.

Photos below lot listings.

a little wrinkly/bendy, deeply toned, portrait reasonably clear with some

detail; neat round Hole above head. IMPORTANT NOTE: The hole

likely represents an official re-certification of this coin to continue

circulating after the 1696 "Great Recoinage." As such very rare &

historically significant. (A ""worn" example similarly holed brought

are quite rare and important. $30.

of dark core exposure, and a sizable rough hole near center. Much of obv

lgnd visible. $5
