Slab photo's.... any photoshop and photo experts advice?

I want to remove the background from my photos leaving a clean look.
I've tried magnetic lasso on a white background. It turned out too jaggy around the slab edges.
I tried just simple cropping on a white background. I had too much trouble getting the coins spot on straight all the time.
IMO the best I've done so far is using a white cut-out aprox. the size of a slab placed behind the coin and then on a green background. Using the magic wand tool to take cut out the green area's. The results come out like this:

Other than the fact that I left a finger print on the slab, I am semi pleased with it.
Does anyone have a better suggestion though on how to get a clean looking photo of just slab/coin?

I'll see your bunny with a pancake on his head and raise you a Siamese cat with a miniature pumpkin on his head.
You wouldn't believe how long it took to get him to sit still for this.
