1855 token with bullet hole

[K1DDO1979]

Went for a short hunt that was a bust so I took a short cut along the rocky shoreline to get back to my car. I usually don't hunt beaches but there was a little high sandy patch that must have got there from a big storm so I gave it a try. I got a good solid signal almost right away and got a 1855 fisheries and agriculture one cent token. Someone must have used it for target practice once upon a time. I've got lots of old tokens but this is my first one of this type so it's a decent find for me even with the bullet hole. The lettering is better than it looks in the photos. I couldn't get very clear pictures. Thanks for looking!








This is what it should look like...

nice find and yes, if it was actually shot, that was dead centered!

I forgot to mention it's the token is about the same size as a large cent.
