[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2409513, member: 69760"]I found one of the nicer bullion designs for a 1 oz silver "round" (octagon), and is about 1/8" thick. It has the Liberty Bell on the obverse like on the 1926 commemorative half and the Ben Franklin half dollars. On the reverse, there's a neat 13 ring design with the flying eagle, seen on earlier American coinage. However, the coin is embedded inside lucite and is a paperweight. The presentation of it is nice, but I also like it in a Quadrum capsule that takes up less space. But, it's different and a nice display piece, too. I'm unsure what to do. If cutting of large chunks of it and putting the remaining lucite and bullion in acetone won't remove the lucite, then I'll have to leave it as-is. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!
