<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aslpride, post: 1787420, member: 36954&quot;]Okay, okay, okay. Everyone have opinions on using gloves. Let me share my opinion on using gloves. Please don&#039;t take my opinion as offensive, but enlightenment on using gloves.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>First of all, my perspective when someone said, &quot;I don&#039;t need gloves because I can handle coins without mistake by touch surface.&quot; IMO, it&#039;s a perfectionism behavior. I am sure anyone won&#039;t admit that they did make mistake by touch surface after years of experience and it could be a costly mistake. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I find it an ironic that same people who preach us that oil treatment on coins from slight to dipped is a no-no because over time the oil will ruin the coin and yet, they said it&#039;s OK to handle coins by edge without gloves. I found that a questionable because of the statements by them regarding to &quot;Oil&quot;. Overtime the oil will crawling around the coin. Therefore, oil from our fingers touch the edge will stay there and developing whatever it would become to a infested elements on coins in long run. You are welcome to correct my argumentative.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I used gloves for all reason as stated by others. I am trying to avoid transfer oil from my fingers on UNC and proofs. However, I still use gloves for circulated coins because they are filthy! You still do find boogers attached to coins and it&#039;s disgusting to handle without gloves. You are welcome to call me, &quot;mysophobia&quot;. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Again, everyone are prone to mistakes as it&#039;s normal. It&#039;s OK to admit that we do make mistakes from time to time. As I mentioned previous that it&#039;s could be costly mistake because any fingerprint on coins will automatic grade MS 65 despite if it may grade higher.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It&#039;s always good to use gloves despite if you have years of experiences handle coins. For me, I am still using it and will always wear it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
