Yep - drive the pin out with a well fitting punch (to stop the pin burring over) take the collar off, and then the whole prop assembly (prop, drive spring, and hub, at which point you will see the drive pin through the prop shaft.
Before reassembly, clean, lubricate the prop hub so that the prop is free to turn on it, and the outer collar, which should be a good but not overtight fit.
