"...Handling is not required to enjoy the beauty of the coins."

snipped: "David Novoselsky" <dnovo@ix.netcom.com> writes Collecter coinage is meant to be carefully stored and maintained in as-new condition. Handling is not required to enjoy the beauty of the coins. Bikes however, at least for some of us, are meant to be ridden as part of their enjoyment is the way they respond to us as their riders.
Of course, that is simply my opinion, and no more or less valid than that of any one else.
