  Generally, milk spots do kill the value. Perhaps the buyer was not aware of this, or possibly thinks they can be removed. Cheers, RickO

  The description in the linked auction mentions the milkspots (kudos to the seller), but the picture really doesn't show them (they could be small and hard to see at certain angles), so the buyer may not be paying attention to the desc, or may be thinking they aren't that bad (not realizing they could grow).

  Yeah, but Rick's have more substance so it takes him a bit longer
  (you do realize how long it takes to write... "toning sucks!" )

  I wouldn't pay $25 for a spotted Silver Eagle, let alone $66. The bidder, even though the seller appears to have done everything in his power other than say "smart coin collectors would never buy this coin for more than silver price" still must have made a bidding mistake by not reading the whole title/description. Heck of a detailed description.

  I think ebayers know what they are buying. When I sold my 1999 NGC PF 70 Silver Set a few years back, I even pointed out that the Delaware had some possible problems developing. Even had photos indicating the problem areas. Didn't matter, the set sold for $5200.
