<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgan1878, post: 591350, member: 17869&quot;]This coin was originally in a bezel. I liberated it by very carefully slotting the outside of the 4 tabs that were holding the coin. I used a dremel tool with a diamond blade. Although I was able to get it out without any additional damage, if you look at the reverse in the sun at the bottom, you&#039;ll see a tab mark that was the result of the coin being held by one of the tabs. 2 of the tabs were not touching the coin and the other one was barely hitting the surface.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My suspicions about it being cleaned are related to the fact that it was intended to be worn as jewelry, hence it&#039;s probably more likely that this coin was cleaned at some point.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
