<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Boss, post: 513035, member: 15110&quot;]Harry, I understand what your saying and used to feel that way about handling the coin.&nbsp; Another way to see it however, is that we pay so much money, at times, for such a small things it&#039;s like getting a killer hand oil painting and taping it to your wall as it&#039;s more natural that way?&nbsp; The slab highlights the coin in an attractive, protected frame.&nbsp; You have preserved it for generations to come and reduce the chances that someone will screw up the coin, whether by your own hands or others.&nbsp; I have practicing removing verdigris/grime from my AU/EF with mineral oil and a rose thorn (must not break the tip or it will not work well) and then removing with acetone distilled water.&nbsp; If I send a coin like this in I am happy to have it slabbed if it&#039;s worth it (semi-key dates).&nbsp; I can&#039;t stand seeing slabbed coins with junk on them.&nbsp; Just my opinons.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
