Removing coin from NGC holder safely

I have a coin I plan to remove from the NGC holder (and put it into one of those nice see-through coin boxes I bought from a company in the United Arab Emirates), because somebody at NGC put the coin into the holder upside-down, so what is the safest way to do this? Also, since removal from the holder renders the certification null and void, is it customary to inform NGC about the removal?

This is the NGC holder I am referring to:

I use a band saw from the early 30's. Most you can pop open from one cut. I usually cut all 4 sides off, It really depends on the slab and generation.

 

I don't have a band saw, but I thank you for your suggestion anyway.

 

As it so happens, I recently bought myself a portaband, billed to a prior job. I'll keep that in mind for whenever I feel the need to free a coin from it's coffin. Thanks!

 

There is a short video on here from @lordmarcovan showing the easiest way to get that done. Prop the holder between a space on a wooden walk and simply step on it. Perhaps @lordmarcovan can post a link to that.

 

I'm sure there's a Utube video on it.

 

Speaking of which, for now this seems to be what I am most likely to try:

That will get ya, you can only play with fire so long.

 

Do you have a dremel?

 

No, I only have basic tools like screwdrivers and the like.

 

LOl bare foot!
I would rather use a scroll saw/ hack saw I guess that I am more of a tool guy.

 

While that is certainly an interesting technique, I don't have o wooden porch, and I would be amazed if I managed to do that without causing any damage to the coin...

 

Do you have a video of that?

 

I think I'd have a stroke if I tried that

 

I tried your method, it didn't work, but this did:
