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???

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.
