Does anyone have any idea what’s happened to this 10p coin. Got it back from a local shop with some other change and has peaked my interest

Someone has started drilling it with a hole drill and given up. Or maybe it was being used as a backstop when they were drilling something else.

There are hole drills without the centre drills - like these:

A hole punch would leave different damage and would certainly have deformed the reverse.
