<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 2227591, member: 56859&quot;]Many coins, particularly bronzes, have a slight tackiness (feel, not look... although some might be considered visually tacky as well <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />).&nbsp; Perhaps this is from prior cleaning or treatment-- waxes, Verdicare, oil, whatever.</p><p><br /></p><p>A puff of air doesn&#039;t dislodge the fine debris.&nbsp; Usually I don&#039;t notice until processing the images.&nbsp; If there are just one or two little specks, I use the Photoshop spot healing brush.&nbsp; If extensive, I give the coin a quick swish in acetone, dry with a lint-free cloth, and rephotograph.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
