1980 Test Coins
I have a set of these. There are 3 Carew, Garvey and Jackson. The coins are pretty tarnished, so not sure if they were originally the "silver" or "bronze" color. I also have an extra Jackson, which is "gold" colored. It, unlike the other 3, has a hole in the top through the O in Topps. The SCD catalog notes that some have such holes. Does anyone, like David or Bob L, have any idea why some have holes ? For a chain maybe ? I have one of the 1957 Lucky Penny send away tokens, which you got by sending in the insert card, and the penny is in a metal circle with a hole with a small chain through it. Any thought the 1980 coins were going to be a send away for it type item ?
