[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 387759, member: 9474"]Once again, I didn't do a search for this topic because there are many members that are probably wondering the same question and would benefit from this new thread. Growing up, I always knew that it was very important to be very careful when handling coins. For years, I have had a really soft "coin towel" that I used if I needed to move or grab the coin in an odd way other than holding it by the rim. Over the years, I have noticed finger prints showing up here and there... even after I thought I was extremely careful. So I tried cotton gloves. Many people suggested cotton gloves... and I have them and use them, but very rarely now. They fabric is much more rough than my coin towel and I feel there is a greater risk to damage the coin. I was told that I could get softer gloves, but now I am not sure that is the way I want to go. So lately I have been using the latex finger condoms (for lack of a better word or description) Does anyone use these or latex gloves as an alternative? And what would the pluses and minuses be. Thanks. Joe[/QUOTE]
