you know.. seeing as how we're on the topic of youtube... have you guys seen those videos where theres a guy showing off his coin collection?? he just pours them all over the table and mauls them showing the whole world what he has hidden in his house!
Just a wasted of time and possible a back injury. Much easier method is a Butane Torch. You just melt all the material away from the coins.
sticks of dynamite would work but only if you have a license to possess and use such materials. thermite would work and you can make that at home.
Maaan, was it just me, or did anyone get a chill down there spine and flinch a bit when he started? Phoenix
I've busted a few out of third party slabs... I use a Dremmel tool with a mandrel and a cut off wheel and slowly cut around the seams... Throws a lot of hot plastic around and can be messy... But no chance of hurting the coin inside...
