Re: Has anyone seen the new James Elmen catalog?
So Josh, what exactly do you do before heading for the office? It would be best if you didn't complain to PGCS that your slabbed silver eagles were developing "milk spots" -
Re: What will this blemish do to the "grade" on this 1964 Jeff proof
I don't see a mark on the jaw? Looks like a milk spot between the O and the D. It wouldn't affect the grade so much as the eye appeal. Even then, I don't think it's that awful. -
Re: Is This Russ's Heaven????
I was a lot of fun opening them, only 1 set has the deaded milk spots on them, the rest were clean!! James didn't mention the 50 odd 1963 sets with CAM/DCAM Frankies!!! -
Re: Silver bullion picture thread
The Swiss bars come up for auction occasionally on eBay, but not by US sellers. It looks as if Argor also has a "rinse problem" with their bars, quite a few have developed the notorious "milk spots." Great collection though. -
Re: Could our efforts to "protect" moderns actually be causing problems?
It seems that you need to dip moderns (especially proofs) in acetone or alcohol to stabilize them before you have them slabbed, to prevent the Mint-infested crap (i.e. milk spots) from showing up. -

what time frame for this grade for this coin?
PCGS won't give the recent 2006-W ASE an MS70 grade, what if all the recent 2006-W's are milk-spot free after a year or three? might that change? Loaded -
Re: Show us your first ever PCGS coin!
Mine was a silver eagle I got for joining at the silver membership level. I think it says “collectors club sample” or something similar. It has milk spots ALL over it, kind of ironic I guess. -
Re: Since the Mint...
If you are referring to the milk spot problems, the US Mint is not alone with that issue along with Copper bleeding in 90%+ Gold coins. No one has found the perfect solution to eliminate those problems. Perhaps you can. -
Re: PF70 1995-W Silver Eagle PCGS vs NGC
I'd say the PCGS would bring more money I'm thinking I read somewhere it has to do with the possibility of milk spots forming on the Silver Eagles that keep them out of PCGS plastic at PF70.
