Richardfor reference, there is an easier and faster way to crack a beckett case. It is a bit scary, but it works.
Take a flat head (standard) screwdriver, medium to large size, and position the blade so that it is vertical and pointing straight down at the case, center of the case left to right and right at the bottom edge of the label. (For those who can't picture it, imagine you are holding a stake over a vampires heart)
Then take a hammer and whack it. The case should split right in half (wear protective eyewear). The card sealed in the inner sleeve should be left exposed and unharmed.
Like I said, scary, but it works. Please don't experiment on cobbs and wagners.
By the way, can you share what card?
