<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ambr0zie, post: 5337352, member: 80952&quot;]I don&#039;t like slabbed coins.

It was a modern coin, 25 g, 37 mm so quite large, in an excellent state.</p><p>He was not happy with the grade (and even if I don&#039;t normally discuss grades, on that one I agreed)</p><p>Knowing that there is a possibility to damage, scratch the coin in the process, he used a hacksaw, making a parallel cut with the coin. Took longer than the hammer method, but in the end everything was OK.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
