Re: Morgan Folks, what caused....(picture fixed)
I see it now, looks like he's spitting up some hair balls. Looks like it's milk spots or possibly from an irregulat die. Two small to worry about. Still think it's a 64 possibly a 65. -
Re: What happened to this PCGS MS63 $10 Indian? Coin doctoring / putty ?
<< <i>I'm curious: there have been issues with the silver eagles and milk spotting, and some seem to think an acetone dip would cure that issues....obviously an acetone dip fixes puttied coin issues...Maybe it would be in everyone's best interest if PCGS cleansed all coins in acetone before encapsulating them. This would… -
Re: Just realized Trout is going to be 29 and He's about a hundred dingers behind the MIck?? HUH??
No top 5 only top 4....so you can't put him above the Babe...so who's left? Was Mays better? Was Aaron better? Was Williams better? I think day in and day out it has to be Aaron (Does Mick ever hit 755 Dingers for real which is really Nuts!!) and Williams ( Who last batted over .400 which is SICK!!!) over the Mick ...so it… -
Re: A DEALERS SPECIAL 2003 MINT SETS ALL SOLD
Did you see what I saw looking over the JFK's, the "D" were nice struck but had bag marks all over them. The "P" were weak strikes with milky spots and milky haze. I looked at over 400, and found 12 worth a shot at submiting for grading, 9 D 3 P. Allen -
Re: Busting Low Graded Coins Out of Grading Holders ?
The video linked below from a local coin store in Florida shows him cracking out a bunch of slabs to send to be melted. It does appear to be happening with some of the coins where there is no premium to be had for slabbed with the current silver and gold prices. There are also quite a few milk spotted slabbed coins that… -
Re: I get this PM from Wei Chang asking for my address, and today these show up!
<< <i> << <i>You mean like this one? Imagine if any of these puppies ever started to show some milk spotting in a really awkward place >> I would have to send it back to Dr. David Hall for a shot to clear it right up!!! -
Re: 2011 25th Anniversary Shipping Dummies
<< <i>Wow and to think I spend a great deal of time finding the perfect box and enough air pillows to stuff all around the Mint's shipping box before shipping today. Why didn't I just do it like that - NOT!!!!! Agreed-- I'm not trying to be difficult or unreasonable, it's just nuts to me that someone would think it's okay… -
OLD SF MINT UNC SILVER DOLLAR
I have read so many people discussing the fact the mint has been having issues with coins coming out of their capsules. I have even read the mint is having issues with UNC Silver Eagles having milk spots. Thus, the reason PCGS will not give any SAE coins the MS70 designation. Today I received my Old SF Mint Unc Silver… -
Re: 1970 Kennedy proof
That pic is as good as it gets... especially when shooting proofs.... I can see tiny milk spots on this coin and with shots like this, it maybe possible to find hairlines although, the coin would have to be photographed with this detail at various angles... great photo... -
Re: Is this Accented Hair a cameo?
BSqr, Nice choice. These can be the most fun coins to search out cameos in. The most important advice I can give you is: -They will grow milk spots when submitted if they've been recently dipped. Many have, particularly on eBay, been dipped just prior to being offered for sale. Many will also grow milk spots within weeks…
