Please note. Whoever said you can do this using an electric toothbrush never tried. On the other hand, tape the sucker to the bottom of a pad sander and you can make the coin spin in circles. I will try to post picks of the sander (for those who don't know what one is), the coin duct taped in place and HURRAY! The coin straight up in it's holder. This is m new 1905-O MICRO "O" Good 4 Barber Dime. SM White Holder James
Just for kicks I took a picture of the Micro "O" and the only other "O" mint coin I have to show the difference in size. I stil have to find out how this anomaly came to be. james
That is brilliant. I love handy, well thought out solutions to a problem. This should be a sticky thread along with @lordmarcovan "how to crack a slab" video.
I think the electric toothbrush is used in PCGS rattler slabs the coin moves much more freely, I couldn't imagine trying it with a soapbox slab.
