What is this hole in the center for? Have seen a lot of them in base metal coins

The dies with this dimple on the middle are known for their consistent diameter and shape, it is theorized that this dimple is where some sort of smoothing tool was placed, helping to shape the flan

By the way Classical Numismatics, I’m just interested, how much did that Arsinoe II coin go for? It’s a very cool design.
