If you do decide to cut it out the key with an exacto knife, or some razor to keep the holo mostly in tact be really careful. I redeemed a cas a few years ago and cut part of the key text! luckily I was able to piece the letters together and redeem. You can kind of see the outline of where the indentation is for the key area, but its really hard to tell anyway best of luck to you if you do go this route there is a decent premium on them on ebay/stacks ect
How much could a 2011 Casascius error coin be worth, graded MS68 or MS67, with the hologram perfectly cut?
prices are all ove the place buying here is a little different compared to the secondary market. The ones that were cut perfectly already go for 1-2k from what I have seen on the secondary market ebay ect. the 2011 error holo intact pretty much 2-3k I would say somewhere in that range, but I am no expert. I am basing it off what I have seen sell recently and over the past few months. I have a few myself I intend on keeping for a long time
