<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wacky1980, post: 1823673, member: 32383&quot;]i received a small collection from a deceased family member. the coins were all glued to felt paper, put in a frame, and hung on a wall around 30-35 years ago. i want to keep the collection intact, but the current display method is killing me. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-6pBGslKzHqA/Upu5_KZ0qgI/AAAAAAAACZY/aRXJ4aKs-es/w458-h611-no/IMG_20131201_163636.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-zvUE3wQ1QTk/Upu6BXGsIAI/AAAAAAAACZk/xxFiHepvHs8/w458-h611-no/IMG_20131201_163644.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>the coins are all glued firmly to the felt, to the point that i can&#039;t pull them off. i&#039;m not exactly sure how to go about removing the coins from whatever adhesive they&#039;re attached with, but i would prefer to put the collection into something a bit less damaging. </p><p><br /></p><p>so on to my question. would it be more damaging to leave the coins where they are, versus removing them from their current home with whatever damaging solvents? i&#039;m leaning towards removing them, but i&#039;m open to suggestions. what do you folks think?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
