I can't wait for this one to be over with Time to stop the spoon feeding. .
No matter how you cut it or solder it. All that is left is some silver scrap when this is over .

Judging by the length of this thread, perhaps there's potential for a TaeKenDo Reality Show?

After the coins have been removed from the spoon the coins and the spoon will be pretty much ruined and will only be good for scrap anyway.
Just rip them puppies off with a pair of side cutters or whatever and save yourself the expense of jewellers and soldering equipment.
Eight pages about someone destroying a perfectly good spoon, Sheeesh.
Get on with it already .

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!)

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?

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.
