In the case of business strikes, the coins were intended to circulate; the wear on a coin, provided it is naturally occurring, is not damage, but a sign of it serving its purpose. In strictly technical terms, wear could be called damage, but traditionally speaking, it is not considered that.</p><p><br /></p><p>On Proof Specimens made specifically for collectors, I suppose circulation wear could be more reasonably considered damage since the coin was never created to circulate.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I’m not a fan of TPG’s period, but I prefer NGC and ICG over all others. That does not mean I’m major fans of them or blindly follow what they say.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your claim that inhalers are simply placebos or crutches is a totally erroneous statement, for obvious reasons. But alas, this is a numismatic forum, not a medical forum, and I don’t feel the need to further detail the ignorance of your statement.</p><p><br /></p><p>But what do I know.
