[QUOTE="torontokuba, post: 1955080, member: 56793"]You should try to focus on keeping various concepts separate.

A coin can be toned, felt up and smudged by contact with skin oils and sweat. It's not until an individual (more often than not of European traditions ;)) decides to wipe the surface, that the mint frosting or luster is destroyed forever. All that is needed for future improvement, is the separation of the methodical attention to detail, from the obsessive-compulsive cleaning disorder and Bob's your uncle.
