[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 3669719, member: 1765"]Simplistic answer is to do whatever it normally takes for you to set aside emotions from any decision making process. If you look at enough really nice coins, then you can desensitize yourself to the emotional triggers of looking at them. The downside of that is that the emotional triggers are something that we enjoy in this hobby. Another trick to looking more objectively is to look at the coin upside-down when grading, right side up when admiring. That might give visual cues to your brain that will help.[/QUOTE]
