Soap and water should do the trick on your hands. You have a much bigger problem to consider though - MS70 turns copper blue & purple.
Care to elaborate on that statement ? For every 1 example you can point to that went up 300% in 1 specific year, I can point to 100 that...
Ducats were the ugly redheaded stepchild of the coin world until I started collecting them, writing about them, posting pics of them, and bragging...
You're correct of course, didn't really think about Walmart. But then that is their individual sales gimmick - using the oddball prices when...
There were 1964 Special Mint Sets. No one is denying that or saying anything different. There were absolutely no 1964 Special Mint Sets...
Uhh - a quartr is 25, a quarter plus a dime is 35, qtr plus 2 dimes is 45 ............
No point ? Hmmmm - what do you call the ability to make $150-$200 of profit on each one by selling the fakes to unsuspecting collectors on a coin...

It is exactly that type of thinking that stops it from happening. People keep coming up with scenarios where they believe they will lose money....
Not on the coins - on the dies. And it is not done that way any longer. Now the mint mark is on the hub.

They were - but then Congress changed its mind. You can probably blame that same guy for that too.
The $1 bill is a detriment because it cost us a fortune to make them. They last about 18 months at best while the $1 coin last approx 30 years. So...
I don't think so, I think it's just the pics. The coin is highly reflective as can be seen in the last pic - that's the guys skin you see...
