Re: Spotty 2009 Lincoln MS68 graded coin, I don't get it.
This is a little disheartening. Going through about 10 dollars worth of P mint Formative Years from the bank I got rid of several pennies that had pristine surfaces.......but a TON of milk spots. Had I known that the grading services were going too ignore the spots I would have kept an additional 15-20 coins that may have… -
Re: I think i'm done with the ATB pucks. (pics)
Has anyone ever done a controlled study with ASE's, or other US mint .999 silver, regarding the milk spot issue? It would be interesting to see someone break open a MB and acetone rinse half the coins, and leave the others as is, and then store them in different ways. Leave some from each group in tubes, put some in each… -
Re: 2023 Peace Silver Dollar Proof and 2023 Morgan Silver Dollar Proof
I really don't believe they could be corroded already. Much of what some people think are defects on the coin is often on the capsules, or perhaps debris on the coin. Some of the spots on the Morgan look like milk spots or maybe someone sneezed on it. In any case, if you are within the return window by all means file for a… -
Re: Vacuum sealing slabbed coins for longterm storage?
Its not just ngc. I’ve got anacs and pcgs slabs, new and old and if there’s toning or milk spots or shmutz it will remain or continue to tone, spot or whatever. My Morgan in an anacs slab ( not noticeable toning when purchased 30 years ago) turned in the slab)is actually getting a much better look as time goes by. So… -
in a pickle?

hello all! what if someone had a slabbed coin that developed carbon spots or milk spots etc. after a couple years months or whatever? does one have any recourse with the grading service or does the collector strike out? no pun intended.what would you do? has anyone ever had this happen? i'm talking about a coin that was… -
WTB 1994 Silver American Eagles PCGS MS69
I need a few Silver American Eagles PCGS in MS69 condition. They need to be in tip top condition. I want them to have no milk spots, or any spotting for that matter, haze, or toning, or any other problems with the coins. I'm looking to buy 2 - 5 (or any quantity for that matter) 1994 depending on the price so please PM me… -
Re: Win a Body Bagged Coin that is in Plastic.
The bad side of some of the cleaning that is if it's not done correctly, you may have a killer 67-69 coin but in a couple of years it can/may develop undesirable toning or milk spots. I feel that a coin should only be conserved to halt damage to a coin via carbon spotting, bad "doctoring" or PVC damage. I have seen some… -
Re: What lies beneath ??

Is it proof or uncirculated pack - can’t see date either which would help me a little bit. Does appear to have some cameo - (and maybe a milk spot or two as a bonus) Interestingly, I took a chance once at a pawn shop and bought a mess of old cellophane and inside was a uncirculated 63 Franklin that is flawless - NOT one… -

Re: American Silver Eagle Collection Photo
Nice set. Too bad they're in the wrong holders! LOL Actually, I think the eagles look better in the white holders instaed of the clear ones. Does your set have spotted coins too? Or, is it just PCGS and raw coins? What I'm asking, is, maybe NGC knows about the milk spot problem and they dip the coins first? That would be…
