<p>[QUOTE="chascat, post: 2887267, member: 76792"]Milk spots cannot be removed as they are soap residue struck in to the coin at over 200 tons of pressure. Coins stored in celophane are prone to hairlines from handling of the sets. You can't really grade a coin properly thru the celo. so I carefully cut them out and cherrypick them for possible 67s or better. Cameos are a rare find because of years of cherrypicking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
