<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Burgess, post: 5658075, member: 105098&quot;]Yeah, I&#039;m with desertgem. I don&#039;t think it has to do with the gloves per say, I think it has to do with it being end of January, the coin being colder, and your hands being warmer causing the coin to fog up. even a little hand sweat suggests your hands were pretty warm in January. ideally your hands, the room, and the coin are all the same temps, or close to it to avoid it.</p><p><br /></p><p>i think this occurred due to the right set of conditions, only you really know how you stored it, what the room temp was, and if your hands were that warm and whether the coin was chilled, maybe from being in a drawer or safe, tucked in a closet where the heat doesn&#039;t reach so good. No idea where you are though, weather will also play a factor, rainy or snowy, indoor humidity will go up considerably also along with it. </p><p><br /></p><p>washing your hands are fine enough to handle coins, clean cotton gloves are fine also. I use them for proof coins and I don&#039;t want to hear from the naysayers about it. Clean hands absolutely are fine. I still like gloves in certain situations.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also wipe off my coin roll finds with my T shirt if they are less than uncirculated, so sue me! LOL my shirt couldn&#039;t be much worse than other people&#039;s hands or pockets.</p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie101" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
