sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 05/03/2012 12:42 pm I have done a job like that using two hard rubber sheets with the coin between and the whole compressed in a vice. Works well with hammered coins. Report this Post to the Staff

MathieuMa Pillar of the Community France 1591 Posts	Posted 05/04/2012 01:45 am Superb job, I may try it on some of my coins as well I was trying to figure out a nice way - those are gold though, I don't want to have marks on those as the metal is softer. Report this Post to the Staff
