It's for the very best to leave it in its thing. It can be worth money someday because it's bicentennial, from DC, and from a big hotel chain.
Rest in Peace

You can try to melt that Lucite block in a large furnace like they do on the show ''Forged In Fire '' . But there's a strong chance of melting the coin too .

Maybe someone who collects Sheraton memorabilia (if there is such a thing other than towels) would be interested.

Putting in on ebay with that in the description may find a buyer.

Comments and kidding aside, I still hope BDV chooses to keep this for the sentimental value.

Absolutely not worth trying to break the coin out. These types of encased Lucite coins retain some collectibility. You can frequently see them with silver coins like Morgan dollars and Roosevelt dimes.
