<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 1025018, member: 360&quot;]Hey folks.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, interesting story: I won a coin at auction, which is very old, very silver, and very shipwrecky.</p><p><br /></p><p>Problem is, said coin has been grafted onto the end of a spoon (soldered or something). Is it possible to remove the coin from the spoon? The end of the spoon-handle is just kiss-touching the rim of the coin. If possible I&#039;d like to pull them apart somehow.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is most definitely genuine, and has been documented - apparently, joining coins from this shipwreck to spoons was a fad or something, which was done for reasons I don&#039;t understand. Personally I think it&#039;s ugly and would like to just have the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is another spoon set up in the same way, from the same wreck. I think it&#039;s a travesty to treat shipwreck treasure like this. All it would take is to cut the coin off the top of the spoon... </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://img.carters.com.au/300x300/fddde2b9c5c7f770532f8c550facb0bf.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
