I have mine on an exceptionally stiff Tange ChroMoly MTB fork, not a low cost mild steel Raleigh thimble crown .
you sure the bike pictured did not hit something and it was only from the brake?
Hole all the way thru the lower lug is probably from removing the rod brake linkage.. it likely a 50+ year old frame & fork...
