[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3972071, member: 112"]Sounds like you're trying to justify using a swab in all cases by pointing out pretty rare exceptions. Now I'l grant you that should either of those two exceptions exist, then I could understand and even agree with using a swab. But barring that ....... There will be no impact to the other side of the coin because MS70 will not harm the coin. Verdi-Care can essentially be used as a dip. No, it doesn't have to be, but even the guy who invented it recommends that the entire coin be treated when using Verdi-Care so that it's protective coating remains on the entire coin. As for mineral oil, it should ever be used on a coin to begin with. To the contrary, that is exactly how it should be used. Especially when you are trying to remove haze from the coin. Using it as a dip is faster, easier, safer, and it will leave the entire coin with a consistent surface. Many, many professionals use MS70 exactly that way for exactly that reason prior to submitting coins for grading. I mean even the name - MS70 - was chosen and used because it's use allows more coins to achieve the grade of MS70. And it does that by using it as a dip. But like I said, to each his own.[/QUOTE]
