Nice finds Woolshed, I never saw a coin cut like that before, any idea as to why it was cut like that?

Hi ZDD, No idea, but it was suggested to me that it may have been used as a pic to play a banjo,
Cheers, Woolshed.

Cool coin it does look like it could of been used as a pic but it's awfully heavy. I imagine it would sound very tinny. When I was a teen I used to cut credit cards for picks.

Hi, Yes it is heavy and thick.

Cheers, Woolshed.
