I happened across a $1 coin last week that exhibited these exact same holes in the coin, they were all uniform in shape and size and depth, so exact in nature that I thought they were man made holes, I kept the coin for a few days, and after looking at it again I decided not to keep it?????
Are these holes a genuine error in the coin??
The seller of this coin wanted 20K for it, he is tripping if you ask me, but it begs the question what is it worth???
bugger all I would think, I would say PMD
I'm with AC but interesting all the same
I have a little punch that leaves marks like that..must see if I can find it
Found it..here's ya go EH, just a quick one but I think it's pretty bloody close..I could do them I reckon..might have to tighten the spring a bit more

A J ,

The coin which error-hunter posted in the OP has also been commented on by its seller over on the eBay Australia forum. He claims he placed a humongous price on it because he doesn't really want to sell it. And now he's scratching his head wondering why he's getting hate e-mails.
nice sleuth work there Sap :good: One day these people might wake up..most put a high price on to try and get people to look..shame it backfires sometimes
I was just playing Nevol and i like to see if I can find how/what made the marks :)
Got your deposit today, thanks very much Kel :)

If you're going to play that game, at least make the price ludicrous to make it obvious... like a million dollars. Then nobody is going to think you're actually trying to sell it.
:laugh2: I found the coin in question and don't think they got and bids, here's the link http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ERROR-Planchet-flaw-Holes-11-25g-1-OF-A-KIND-Unique-1968-20c-20-twenty-cent-Aust-/190884334009?pt=AU_Coins2&hash=item2c7197c9b9&nma=true&si=OZ9NZUuEG4CO1NcWFUjCOrkRLBQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557#ht_482wt_924
and here's another that is like a thread not so long ago, I'm still on the fence about this type :scratch_one-s_head:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2001-AUSTRALIAN-50-CENT-FEDERATION-S-A-POSSIBLE-ERROR-BUT-NOT-CERTAIN-/261239426281?pt=AU_Coins2&hash=item3cd3154ce9&nma=true&si=OZ9NZUuEG4CO1NcWFUjCOrkRLBQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557#ht_411wt_958
There's no way that this is mint error AJ,seriously mate ,what has big wide bar type things like that,definitely no coins that i'm aware of,my bet is they get stuck in some sort of vending machine or similar.
:agreed:
Didn't we have this discussion, like, a month ago or so?
Yep we did, I thought I'd seen one before and I didn't think it was real then so here on page 45 of this thread :good:
