<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtlee321, post: 2960184, member: 73983&quot;]WOW!!&nbsp; I know how to handle a coin.&nbsp; I literally was holding the edge of the coin.&nbsp; My fingers never once touched the surfaces of it.&nbsp; I was waving my finger in front of it to show the reflection.&nbsp; My hands were not &quot;GREASY&quot;!&nbsp; I gave the coin an acetone bath and I washed my hands using dish soap (which is designed to break down oils) before handling the edge.&nbsp; Also, TPG&#039;s don&#039;t wear gloves when they are grading your coins, in case you didn&#039;t know.&nbsp; Not wearing gloves gives a much more positive control of the coin while handling it.&nbsp; My finger in the back is curved so that it is only contacting the edge, it&#039;s there to prevent the coin from being dropped.&nbsp; Plus if I had accidentally touched the surfaces with my clean fingers, the coin would have gone directly into an acetone bath.&nbsp; Come on, give me a little more credit, I know what I am doing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
