Re: Toned 1968 S Proof Quarter - Beautiful or Ugly?
I would pass on this one. Not a big fan of the white spots on the reverse. Reminds me of milk spots on Silver Eagles. -
Re: ***Official September 2016 Precious Metals Buy Sell Trade Thread ***
A) 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.… -
Re: 2019 S enhanced reverse silver eagle
I would wait but you are aware that these type Silver Dollar coins have a KNOWN SPOTING IISSUE. No one told me when I started buying my graded coins. Imagine my surprise when a few years later I noticed some of my graded coins in their safe PCGS and NGC boxes started to develop the MILK SPOTS. If you did not know you do… -
Re: When a coin spots, what do you do?
Milk spots are permanent.... other spots, if resulting from inclusions (i.e. copper) or carbon spots usually will leave evidence even if removed. Not much can be done unless they are organic, then acetone will usually remove them. Cheers, RickO -

My main objective was to drop off submissions, and a couple of consignments to GC, and look around for myself. Got in at 9:30… -
Re: for those that like big sales results for ASE
I see carbon spots Yes. Under the T of LIBERTY and on the sun. Worth $3 over melt in my opinion. I don't know abut $3, but I see carbon spots and the hint of milk spotting starting as well -
Re: An open question to all dealers/shop owners
<< <i> << <i> << <i>Would you believe that a south suburban pawn shop offered me $75 each? Another one offered 91% of spot. Are there that many stupid/desperate people out there with coins like these who sell so cheaply as to allow these pawn shops to offer such insultingly low bids? >> 91% OF SPOT AT A PAWNSHOP AND YOU… -
Re: Poll - Have you ever submitted a coin to a TPG conservation service?
I have a NGC FEC in ms64 that developed a small area of verdigris. It has a neat wood grainy kind of toning which wasn't affected at all by the conservation. Even knowing where the spot was I don't see any damage and after 3 years it hasn't returned. Before they eliminated free spot review I sent about 3 dozen AGEs, ASEs… -
