drilled silver dollar


I was at an anniversary the other night and someone gave the celebrant a silver dollar with a hole drilled in it for each year clean. He said that before NA had coins that this is what was done. I think he may have said it was in Florida. Has anyone heard of this before?

yes my homegroup (in Florida) does this. I have one and it's a 1932? I asked the guy that drilled it for me (it took him awhile lol ) where he got the old coins and he said from the bank.

You know,  it was the only time that I'd seen a group do that, and it's my AA home group.  I thought it was some kind of original idea.  Thanks for the info, I'll ask.
