Well another expression would be patience is a virtue and since I was woken up at 1:30 to the building on fire on the roof the spoon venture will have to wait. Now we are 12 tenants out of our apartments for the next 3 days because they cut the power (electrical fire) and there is water damage bit nothing too serious from what I saw briefly. Coin collection is safe for now I hope, they wouldn't give us enough time to take much of anything. So how's that for drama ? This thread is getting more and more interesting every day! So the spoon is on ice until I get settled back in with a new front door but will absolutely return later this morning to retrieve my collection.
@Alan, not quite sur what you are refering to or inferring when you say mess up...please elaborate...

Heh, maybe the universe is telling you that you shouldn't mangle the spoon?
(Best wishes to you, anyway!)

Quote: TaeKenDo simply asked for some help & never thought he`d get more than a few replies on how to de-solder coins from a spoon. Why are you responding to your own thread like you are someone else? What are you aiming to gain by destroying a perfectly good collector spoon?

Maybe the 5 cent is a 1921?

Sorry to hear about your situation & I hope you and your family (and your collection) are all safe and sound.

I'm just kidding around TaeKenDo, I wish you the best. We were evacuated due to forest fire for 2 weeks one time and it is not fun. Hope you get back in your place soon.

Good luck TaeKenDo, I hope everything works out with the building and for every resident.
I have been following this thread, hopefully they don't lock it, just block a certain user. If it does get locked, please post the final results. I think many are interested and curious.
Good luck either way.

Thanks for the encouragment, appreciated. And yes I will follow up on the spoon when things get back to normal. Could take a few weeks but won't leave this thread hanging. I'm done here until then.
