<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hiddendragon, post: 2856514, member: 25270&quot;]I received a Russian silver coin today from Russia, and it came in an airtite capsule. I don&#039;t know if it&#039;s that specific brand but it&#039;s that style. I wanted to get the coin out to take a picture, and no matter what I try, I can&#039;t get the darned thing open. There&#039;s a faint seam along the edge, but neither my fingernail nor a knife can make any headway on it. It makes me think maybe there&#039;s a different way to open it, but it&#039;s a puzzle I can&#039;t figure out. Most capsules are fairly easy to open, but this one does not want me to get in. Any ideas from you veterans out there? I&#039;m almost tempted to smash it, but of course I&#039;d be worried about damaging the coin, and it&#039;s a nice holder which I&#039;d keep using after I got my picture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
