<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1770250, member: 112&quot;]Grumpy ? Not in the least, I was merely trying to answer your questions accurately and post my comments in a straightforward manner. As for touching the surface of the coin - the primary reason for the wearing of gloves is prevent fingerprints from getting on the surface of the coin in the event that the person handling the coin should by accident touch the surface of the coin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Regarding dings, scratches, and the like; as I said I&#039;m reasonably positive it has happened. But it doesn&#039;t happen often, and certainly not often enough to warrant worrying about it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As for those lower level employees handling the coins, at PCGS those employees handle about 5,000 coins per work day, at NGC 7,500 coins per work day. If you did something that often day after day don&#039;t you think you&#039;d get pretty good at doing it ?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>That&#039;s why you shouldn&#039;t worry about it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
