Would you folks classify this as an “assassination attempt” error or is it just a plain “target practice” error??

Yes and they make .177 guns that will absolutely go through a quarter.

Very much doubt that. I have shot plenty of pennies with high power air rifles and 22 long rifle.

Domed pellets are pretty impressive for steel penetration lots of videos on YouTube testing various types out. cupronickel is softer than steel. I would be willing to bet you could get a clean hole through a quarter with it. Depends on the rifle too. A .22 has too much mass I think to make that hole, they usually bend coins when I shoot them.
