Can't wait to see the stater Anaximander.

I've only ever bought one slabbed coin, from Joe as a matter of fact. I just used a razor knife with a heated blade and sliced the top edge off, then pried it apart. Ive even seen some dealers offer to de-slab them for free before shipping.

when I saw the link to that book, my initial thoughts were "can this be real??"
