<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1676681, member: 26302&quot;]I have done it, and so have others I know. However, sometimes it will just break. Once you get used to the general procedure, (I use a bench vise as well, wrapped in leather), the only change I would recommend is some heat. I put the coin in a warm oven, (230 degrees), then take it out and wrap it, then put in the vise. IDK if it really helps, but none of mine have broken. This may not be really necessary, but I would highly recommend only doing this when its warm where the vise is. I would feel horrible doing this in the winter and the coin breaking. Heat does make metal somewhat more malleable.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, don&#039;t be in a rush. Put it in the vise, and very slowly increase pressure. I always leave mine in the vise for a day or so. Again, maybe this is not necessary, I just wanted to give the metal time to &quot;remember&quot; being flat.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
