Reminds me of the telemarketers repeatedly dropping coins on the floor. At least the telemarketers have banjo music in the background.

This is the guy that just purchased the latest Brasher Doubloon at auction recently.

The finger placement is no worse than many TPG graders I've watched handle coins, not great but I don't think he fingerprinted it, as long as his hands were recently washed and clean. Still I handle my own coins with much more care if they are MS like that.

Drives me crazy when I see coins handled in such a manner. If I'm interested in a coin and among the pictures theres someone holding it ungloved, I move on.

I have no problem with ungloved, it's actually less likely to be dropped that way, but only handle the edges.
