Folded silver coin Henry 111
sorry no photos lap top playing up, had two hammered silver yesterday in nice condition too, unfortunately the Henry 111 is folded and there's just a slight gap to get a finger nail in, I'm so tempted to try straighten it, any ideas, thanks Tom..

i think you have to heat it up with a hot air gun then put it in water then open it a bit and slowely repeat the prosses .im sure there is something about it on the minelab forum.

A mate did a Henry VIII half groat for me late mouth, took him many hours and many heatings to get it done. If its folded that far it may brake or crack!
