As pointed out on Reddit, the hologram leaves the frame and the viewer cant be sure I didn't just place a blank disc. I'll be making a new video tomorrow.

Try toluene or diethyl ether, maybe. Otherwise, supercritical carbon dioxide will do it without leaving a trace. What adhesive is used on the stickers?

I'm of the opinion that the only way to guarantee the authenticity of coins with holo stickers is to have them slabbed by a reputable coin grading service, and get a PGP signed message from the mint verifying the path of ownership.

Edit: Oh, that's probably laserjet toner on the disc, right? Try n-octanol.
