Why did you do that? Any specific reason?

Storage issue - a full set of ATB's in slabs would need its own wardrobe.

I've found the easiest way that works with any slab is just to use a hot soldering iron, you just draw round the outline of the coin 5-10mm outside it and melt through the top layer of plastic then lift of the plastic disc and the coin drops out.

If you have a spare ATB 5 oz Hawaii Volcanoes I can take it off your hands leaving you a bit more space.

Sounds like a good technique, but requires owning a soldering iron, which I'm unlikely to ever consider!

other than this method, would anyone advise on a good way to extract a coin from a PCGS slab, without risk (to the coin;))
