Well, makes me cry cause its mine. I thought this might deserve a thread of its own.

jmski52 · September 3, 2007 9:49AM

That really is upsetting. Sorry.

richardshipp · September 3, 2007 9:51AM

Probably not, unless it was raining inside the safe deposit box; inside the vault; inside the bank.

Edit: LOL I knew you were going to ask about the hill country rain

hubird · September 3, 2007 9:51AM

high hill country rain?

morgansforever · September 3, 2007 10:27AM

That is painful. My solution is washing all ASE's in acetone, then vacuum sealing them.

So far no milk, or spots.

I would love to expose them to the environment, if they were going to tone, but don't want to take the risk of milking.

Yeah I can't get the 20th Anniv. designation, or FS, but what good is that if their milked.

I don't get it,, what are we suppose to see or are we looking for?????????

is it the small spots on the sun,???.. I thought those were reflections on the holder......

<<I don't get it,, what are we suppose to see or are we looking for????????? >>

It's a RP70 that has developed spots, it's no longer a 70, very painful, and costly.

Sorry to see this happen to a beautiful coin.
Please educate me: what is the cause of the spots?

LindeDad · September 3, 2007 10:40AM

Clouds forming over the sun, or just llok above the hills, lower left of coin.

ArgentumRex · September 3, 2007 10:41AM

spots near her foot

morgansforever · September 3, 2007 10:42AM

<<Sorry to see this happen to a beautiful coin.>>

I believe it's from the rinsing and drying method used by the Slaughter House.

Some develop spots, others don't.

richardshipp · September 3, 2007 11:17AM

Sorry I guess I should have pointed things out. It's just to me I knew where to look. There is a big "something" by her foot and a smaller spot to the left on the skirt.

tmot99 · September 3, 2007 11:37AM

Ouch. What's PCGS gonna do for you?

Cgb · September 3, 2007 11:54AM

That is rough... I feel your pain

bfjohnson · September 3, 2007 12:12PM

Are milk spots toning on a coin that just isn't as pretty as rainbow toning? Sorry it happened on your 70.

SkyMan · September 3, 2007 12:22PM

Sorry about that. Ship it back to PCGS.

GoldDigger66 · September 3, 2007 12:26PM

Man o man is this making me nervous. I have a PR70 also, maybe I should sell before this happens to me.

Decisions, decisions.....quick decisions......

COINB0Y · September 3, 2007 12:31PM

That looks like a particle dropped on the coin and the stain spread out in concentric circles.

That dark whie ring is real odd.

Sold this one via BIN from store inventory on the bay for almost $900 a couple of weeks ago.

I clearly stated the milk was already there. Guys feedback:

Hate to hear about it, but there is hope.

sfs2002usa · September 3, 2007 1:22PM

I still have TEN UNOPENED SETS from the Mint. Make s me wonder what I should be doing ???

aus3000tin · September 3, 2007 2:08PM

Are the milk spots developing only in PCGS holders?
Does anyone have an example of coins milking in NGC holders?

Thanks,

Chris

What should you do, open them. If they are milked, who would want them?

GoldDigger66 · September 4, 2007 11:12AM

<< <i>I still have TEN UNOPENED SETS from the Mint. Make s me wonder what I should be doing ??? >>

I'd sell the unopened sets asap.

AnkurJ · September 4, 2007 11:53AM

Makes me glad I sold all of mine.
