Re: My new little jewel - warning, large photo!
the first thing I see is that spot Unfortunately, it is on the coin. Fortunately, it is just a light milky tone spot with no debris on the surface. The scanner is greatly exaggerating the spot, as it is only discernible to the naked eye at certain angles. I'm still happy, and I'm picky about spots - especially carbon! -
Re: Too quiet on the boards tonight?
I just saw on the news a NEW 100 mile oil slick has been spotted in the Gulf of Mexico!. Looks like we may have another problem! The cost Gard has confirmed the spill. they are trying now to see which rig is causing it. Its not many miles from the BP one lets hope it doesn't turn out to be another fiasco! -

Re: Would you submit this 62 proof cam Franklin or leave it as is in the Capitol holder ??
I'd try MS70 on the haze and milk spots. If that doesn't work, it's probably not worth submitting. I've had poor luck with CAM and DCAM Frankies in the current environment. If you're bound and determined to get it slabbed, then try MS70 and/or NCS. -

Re: Bet this guy is in shock, 20th ann. SAE set
I declare the bottom is in, or close to it. I sold my milk spotted PCGS 69 set for almost $700 at or near the peak of the SAE frenzy. That's about a $300 drop, or 40+ percent from the top. BUY BUY BUY! -
Re: A great rarity ... a drum roll, please (Ahem, Attn: Russ!)
If it's the one Placid posted, you would've had to fight harder for it but I fell asleep after drinking too early in the day. Russ bowed out on this one.... said he wouldn't be able to remove all the milk spots. -
Re: My New Coin Storage.....
As you look at the tool box, on the left side, on the table, is that rubber foam tray liner material? If it is, you do not want that near any of your slabbed coins. It reacts with PCGS plastic in a bad way. It will etch milk like spots into the plastic. That is my PSA for the day. I have pics of the damage that stuff… -
Re: I have questions about 1954 proof set OGP polybags and the toning it imparts. Do you have answers?
Here is some feedback from my experience. More direct to your original questions #1. Have any of you ever successfully removed the light tan color without damaging the coin? Not personally - I did try it once as a trial - it did not come out well. #2. Have you ever heard of a professional conversation service (NCS of PCGS… -
New return policy for the US Mint??
For the first time EVER, I had to return a product (2025 Proof Set) to the US Mint. One of the quarters had a milky spot. Got the replacement and turns out that the Kennedy Half has a significant smudge between the 2 and the 0 in the date area. Not something I could ever resell and worry that the spot may become worse with…
