<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 2760070, member: 76086&quot;]Back on topic....as for museum displays (or even collector displays) the coins touching each other does little damage if any at all.&nbsp; Microscopically, sure, there will be something.&nbsp; But honestly no big deal.&nbsp; As for the Youtube video, yea, he&#039;s just wearing a glove to show everyone how it is a &#039;museum&#039; piece and handling it accordingly.&nbsp; But he invalidates that concept by dropping it on the table.&nbsp; Probably didnt do any damage, but it could easily happen as gold is very soft.&nbsp; Its a dumb idea.&nbsp; And dumb for any ancient coin no matter the metal.&nbsp; Silver and base metals can be crystallized and dropping it can shatter or break it.&nbsp; Not a good idea indeed.&nbsp; Anyone who has ever heard of the &#039;drop test&#039; should NOT use it![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
