  If they develop milk spots send them back for a grade review.

  I can guarantee you 100% that todays PCGS MS70 will not be an MS70 in 1000 years. The holder will not hold up that long.

  Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity.

  Many wouldn't be a 70 right now if cracked and re-submitted. Although, since there is no upside, that would not happen.

  Now you know WHY so few coins grade PCGS 70.
  
  Metals' surfaces are going to change and a high-priced 70
  that inevitably evolves is going to cost PCGS dearly in the end.
  
  That's just the way it is.

  There is also the occasional mis-grading . . .

  PCGS has the best guarantee in the business. While your MS70 coin may not remain MS70 quality, there is comfort knowing that PCGS will take care of you.
  
  This is big reason why I only buy PCGS coins today, if I'm not buying raw. Sure, NGC has a guarantee too but as it applies to copper it stinks.

  The label will fade, the coin will turn. The value may rise or fall. It all depends on too many variables, but if it gets wildly colored, you may end up with a winner.

  It will only be a "70" to you as long as you think so.

  In the miraculous land of “Magic Pocket Change” it could easily be MS-75 next year. (Entropy precludes “always.”)
