SaturnD51 Valued Member United States 425 Posts	Posted 05/04/2022 2:47 pm You'll be good to go in about four hours. Just put those proof sets on their sides and crack them open. Tap away and they will crack easier than you think. Like everyone said. Hammer, gloves, hard stable surface,nice white gloves,coffee, and a few prayers. You'll be good to go.

jbuck Moderator United States 187446 Posts	Posted 05/04/2022 3:44 pm No hammer needed for modern proof set lenses. They come apart with ease. Worst case you might need a utility blade if you have no finger nails.

Worst case you might need a utility blade if you have no finger nails. with Jbuck - Just hold the case in both hands and give a gentle twist to separate the sides. then a small blade or tiny flat screwdriver to help you ease them open. BUT - open them over a clean SOFT terry cloth of some kind in case a coin drops out. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
