The Holey Dollar
Submitted by sabrinam on Mon, 10/29/2007 - 00:32.The 3D image (PEI Coin 3D) shows a 1 cent coin. This is just one of the many coins used at this time. Another example is the Holey Dollar. The Holey dollar is a Spanish coin. It had a crown on it, and it was a grey brown color. It was also pretty big. Prince Edward Islanders wanted their own currency, but it was harder than they thought.
