<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1088485, member: 24633&quot;]The only drawback to your method is that you might inadvertently scratch the end coin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I wear cotton gloves when opening rolls, and I use an X-Acto knife with a fine-pointed blade. I slip the point under the long edge of the wrapper (about 1/4&quot;) and slice through it where it meets the rolled end. Repeat the same for the other end. Tear the wrapper along both ends about another 1/2&quot;, and with your thumb and forefinger, pull the cut end out from the rolled ends. This loosens the wrapper. Once you&#039;ve done this, you can hold the coins with your thumb and middle finger on the end coins and slowly open the entire wrapper which will give way from the rolled ends. You will notice that the unwrapped coins will be over the palm of your hand, so, if you aren&#039;t as careful as you should be, they will only fall into your hand.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Whenever I&#039;m opening multiple rolls (such as a box), I usually make the small cuts with the X-Acto knife on all of the rolls at the same time. Then, you have no further need of the knife. It&#039;s sort of like an assembly line in reverse.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
