Martin!
 
Most collectors already have holes in their wallets!
And very often it is because of you. ;-)

Good idea! ..and I will wire them by hologram.

I think, each serious collector should carry around a hole in the wallet.

A collectors dream! - But unfortunately no export permit available, cause it
is a natural heritage:

I'd suggest using plastic bubble wrap to protect them during shipment, as it
already consists of many holes surrounded by plastic. That way, if the hole
gets damaged in transit, the recipient already has a supply of replacement
holes on hand.

Thank you Matthias,

indeed it is the largest hole I ever found. I hope it was no mistake to make
it public. The geographic coordinates I will publish as soon as the
scientific work will have been done, for everyone having a fair chance to
hunt his own hole.
I plan, after classification is done, to slice the hole down.
First 2500 people to chime in, will get a parthole for free.
I'm only not sure yet, how to wrap them, for the holes not getting damaged
during shipping.
I will keep you update hourly about the distribution of the freeholes.
Furthermore I offer to any university, high school and rest home etc. a
piece of hole for free for scientific studies and educational purposes.
All others already can pre-order on a moderate price-per-gram-rate.

So don't hesitate, as a famous hole said once:
"Holes are like money in the bank, money in the bank!!"

Wow, Martin, I saw holes in different things - but this is a great one
indeed. Void, nothing else. Leeding to nothing. Impressing. But a bit
daemonic, no? If you'd be willing to part with it, I'd accept it as a
freehole. And I'd sing your praise in eternity.
