First silver and my current oldest silver. Looks to be a hole punched though it. Maybe square nail?

Wow ur first silver for '16 is a real good one. Grats
 
Wonder what story that sliver could tell ? Congrats on a great find.
 
So sad to see a pretty coin like that get defaced.
Congrats on a great find
 
Great coin for your first of this year. In those days one would think it would be crazy to deface it.
 
Congratulations! Good silver to start the year! Is that a hatchet head in the other photo?
 
Yea it's the smallest one I have ever found
 
Congrats on your oldest silver. Sometimes I think those pioneers had nothing better to do than sit around & make holes in coins & shoot them. There has been a tremendous amount of holed & bullet hit coins on the forum in the last 6 months. Yes, sadly enough I have found a few myself.
 
Very nice! [emoji106]
 
Looks like that hole was carved out with a knife, quite possibly done by one of those mischievous cowboys of the old west :thumbsup:
1882 same year Jesse James was shot dead.
 
Congratulations on the seated
 
Congratz! That's a nice silver to start the year with!
