10 Centesimi 1894R or 1893R which one to keep?

6 posts
Hello fellow collectors,

I bought a few coins today, and among them a 10 Centesimi 1894R which Numista says is "rare" and I
have an 1893R already. Being a type collector I just will keep one. The 1894R I got today has great detail (I have never seen a copper coin in such a great shape) but somebody has tried to drill a hole in it...See yourself. While the 1893R is a little worn, and the details are maybe half the 1894R. Which one would you keep? I will keep only one, the other will go for swap/sale. Thanks for any advice!

I was going to say that I'll be up for a swap: but if it were me I would be waving goodbye to the holed coin and maybe trying to get two coins for it!
But he/she did not succeed in drilling it totally, it went mm to blow Umberto's head :) but without succes

x. Poor Umberto! No, it is still "holed" to me! See what other people think!
hole is hole... I would keep both or un-holed.

I might keep both...And maybe try to repair the "semi-holed" one in the future!
