I believe you can actually pop the proof sets open now since I think theyre snapped shut. I've also heard of using a knife where they come together to separate it
Considering the 1965 SMS had all the coins in a single pliofilm package I don't think your going to get that cent out without destroying the packaging.
I've used an exacto knife to pry apart the edges of proof sets. Scissors are just fine for today's mint sets. And hey, what was wrong with cello anyway?
