Grace1958 New Member United States 0 Posts	Posted 08/20/2024 09:13 am Hi Everyone, I am new to this site, I have a couple of coins I inherited from my father and need some help. I am from West Virginia, USA I have a 1964 Kennedy half dollar that is sealed in some sort of capsule. Has anyone seen this capsule and is there a way to get this coin out without damage to the coin. Thanks for any advice Donna Sorry, I am unable to upload the file. Site too complicated for me, thanks just the same. Edited by Grace1958 08/20/2024 09:26 am Report this Post to the Staff

Does the capsule have a seam around the edge you can fit a utility blade into? Look as some of the ones for sale here. Do any of them look similar to what you have? https://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/pr...in-capsules/ Coin Collector Since 1978 Avatar Old Avatar 7070 Eisenhower Australia Canada World CCF Members on eBay CCF eBay Search Engine Report this Post to the Staff

Look at the edge and see if there are threads or not, if not then a sharp knife may help getting it open. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
