displayed in an environment where they are only viewed and not touched. Following are

know:

wrapped in tissue paper because the acids and chemicals used in them might

make them appear older and the tarnish will wear off

spray but holding them with gloves and dabbing them with cotton pads

without damaging its features and devaluing coin. Challenge coins for sale on the internet
