I think the previous owner was trying to poke a hole through it. It is not from my digger.

y do people back then punch holes in the coins??
i never understtod that

The round mark on the back is frequently seen on coins. Typically it is called parking meter damage, but other kinds of coin counters did it too. When the coin jammed, it would spin around and leave these telltale marks. I recently found a 40s Mercury dime with the same marks.

Congrats on the seated!

i think i know why people punch holes, they wanted some silver. thats why they put reeding in gold coins because they shaved coins to get the gold.
