And even if they did visit one these venues, they would examine the coin closely enough before buying it to see that they didn&#039;t want to buy it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now the question is, what does the average collector do when he makes such a mistake ? The best thing you can do is to learn from your mistake and not make it again. Examine any and all coins very closely before buying them. And if you forget and leave your loupe or glass at home - then don&#039;t buy any. But should you make such a mistake, you can try to rinse the coin in acetone and hope it removes any fingerprints. But since fingerprints are not readily visible until it is too late to remove them, there is probably little you can do except to sell the coin and buy another.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
