This Rang up a SOLID 15 all the way around on the Equinox 800. Also found one from 1953 but the was a hole through the date so I wasn't sure at first if it was 53 or 63(Young Elizabeth Portrait). After some research into the Coin they stopped minting them in 1956 and ceased to be legal tender in 1960.

I wonder what those dates meant to the person who lost them...no chain was found.

The dates on the coins with holes were usually the year the person was born, or an anniversary of some sort. Congrats on a nice find.
