Re: PCGS Spot Review..
I don;t understand. Submitting a coin under the grade guarantee has ALWAYS required a specific fee simply because PCGS had to look at the coin and essentially "regraded" it. If it downgraded, that fee in addition to any differential grade funds was refunded to the submitter. Spot Review, on the other hand, never required a… -
Re: Pro and Con Opinions of buying a VaultBox
Yep looks like a second example with milk spots (along with the earlier shown proof). With so few coins (2400 total) it would have been nice to pre screen for anything milk spotted. I guess it could have been in a roll for many years and taking it out of that environment to transfer into a slab caused the spots-still it is… -

WTB - Silver: 1) Got Milk Spots? (true milk spots and not tarnish (but can have tarnish, too)). If so, good. 2) 1oz Art Bar? 3) no Nudes, no Sexy, No Porn? 4) Got photos before the sale? Then I'll take 2 as close to spot plus I pay expenses. Are art bars on too few radar scopes, or are milk spots too hard to find on art… -

Re: Selling all my ASEs - Could use advice
The topic of milk spots was brought up in the Q and A forum about a month ago. If they are in PCGS slabs. I think David Hall is trying to work with scientists on trying to fix milk spots that show up in PCGS coins because of the grading guarantee that PCGS holds to when the milk spots show up. Perhaps if PCGS finds a way… -

Re: What causes water spots on modern business strike coins?

Re: What's your biggest turnoff about a coin? How about a coin photo?
Yes, I get real tired of photo artists who make "pig's ear coins" look like "silk purses." That's why I don't buy much on-line, unless I know the dealer and have an iron clad return privilege. As for coins, chopped up surfaces, ugly toning, spots in the focal area of the design and milk spots are all be turn-offs. Also… -
Re: Guess the grade on this tough 51s mint Frankie....(grade and commentary posted)
As I told Lucy a day or so ago, I agree this is a nice 64FBL. Here are some additional comments: Where you see the black arrows, they are pointing to a hit in the field. PCGS hates these types of hits in the field on Franklins (Washington Quarters too) and they usually preclude a grade higher than 64. can also see a milk… -
