     Hi guy's. I cherry picked a most exquisite 2020d Lincoln Cent. To me, I can't seem to locate any sort of hits or scuffs on the coin whatsoever! Maybe, just one tick on the rim? But what is evident are milk spots or carbon spots. I don't know what those are? What a shame! Our Host wouldn't overlook those spots would they?…

If someone could come up with a way to remove carbon spots, they could about pick where in the world they would like to…

     I agree, it is toning not what we normally refer to as a spot. Carbon spots or milk spots can actually be harmful to the surface. These would drop the grade significantly. I don't think your toning spot effects the surface and should maintain the 70 grade. You will have to check NGC's written description to see if toning…

     The dip wouldn't be for the milk spotting as much as for the spot on the top of his head.

     Milk spots are not a problem as long as you have some oreo spots to go with them.
