Do I try and breakout this $30 1884 Morgan dollar? Come on CC...I know you're under there. looks like it was assembled in July of 1967 wonder if Poppy knows?
I'd say don't dismantle it, but in 1967 a silver dollar was a silver dollar- I don't think people cared about CCs before the 70s. Honestly, pretty tempting. If you can get it out carefully enough...
I’d leave that piece as it currently is. It’s a nice money clip and with a decent silver dollar on it, I think it’s special. If removed the bezel it’s in will reduce the coin to details.
Considering the condition of the back of the money clip. It has something engraved on the top side also and scratched out. I'm going to take it with me to the next casino session and put all my gains in it... solid plan I know The money clip material is slightly magnetic, testing with a strong neodymium magnet so some type of stainless or chrome plated over brass I would consider suspending it upside down and put some heat to it. The coin if glued in should drop out. Maybe a dip in acetone first for a week.
The back of the money clip is scratched up. Was something else engraved on it but scratched off. It is slightly magnetic with a strong neodymium magnet like chrome plated over brassI. I'm considering an acetone soak and then some heat. If suspended upside down and heated the coin might drop out. That or water and overnight in the freezer.
