[QUOTE="352sdeer, post: 2960202, member: 91351"]What gets me here is the OP rescued this coin from the melt box then treats it like a crappy F-12 Details coin when he handles it, I just didn’t get it. Just sayin what I’m seeing is all. IMO you could improve on your coin handling skills a bit and buy some gloves. I don’t send coins in to be graded, I do that myself like we had to WAY back before the TPG services came into being. But it is nice to know the TPG’S also handle coins without gloves, I won’t be sending them any of my coins soon. When new people see seasoned Vets making Newb mistakes that’s how they think it’s done. This then teaches them bad habits, it’s not good because they don’t know the difference. Well that’s how the YouTube expert does it. A newb that watches that YouTube video might not know about Acetone so now his whole roll he just bought is toast, you gonna refund his coins? This is a site for learning the correct information about coins and not learning bad habits. IMO. Again nice pick and I’m glad you know how to midigate the effect of oils that have been put on coin metal by humans. Thank goodness this coin is safe and reconserved properly. Reed.[/QUOTE]
