Cheers Mal! Thats a really clear and well filmed explanation. I have a coin just like the one you featured and have always been frightened to straighten it but watching your video, would give me the confidence to try it!
Cheers

Thanks for the tip Mal, i have a lovely Alexander 3rd hammy but is bent almost in half. will this process work on my coin if care is taken ? Thanks 👍 Tony

[@malcolmpotter]

Hi Tony, just seen your post! This new YT Channel comments is crap.
In answer to your question if you have not already done it is it could but first check the coin especially along the fold for a crack. If there is a crack personally would not risk it as could just drop apart and end up with two cut halves.
