I believe the holes were so that you could sew the coin into your clothing.
I unfortunately sold all of my gold when I bought my excal...now Im saving finds for my next detector.
Well I got my second Lewis machine gun magazine last spring. That makes two now.
My standout find for 2014 is this JR Wood & Sons 14k signet ring with nude mermaids on the sides. I found it in the 1923 JR Wood catalog online.
I put it on ebay as is with an excellent description and listed my sources and slapped a ridiculous price tag on it. 3 weeks later It sold!
