Looks like a nice AU and maybe even a slider (that can slide up to low MS)

Many blast white coins have been dipped and many were done properly. It is the ones that were done improperly that have the spots show...

Milk spots can impact the grade (make it lower). The example you found I would guess was dipped improperly and the spots developed after the coin...
Those are cool finds! The silver nickel in a cent roll is especially unique! Keep sharing your finds as it is enjoyable to read about. :)

That's cool!
Silver Eagles tone differently than other older coins. Some of them have a questionable look but others do naturally tone. I have seen PCGS slab...
