Sometimes I mess up and break something, but then I can always break even or maybe lose a couple dollars by selling for parts.</p><p>But, sometimes, my efforts would succeed and I would end up with a gem.</p><p><br /></p><p>SO although many here say that you would ruin the look of the coin and it would be&nbsp; crime to numismatics, I think you have much more to gain than lose.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
