[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2474921, member: 15929"]That "Haze" is typical of the Brown Box IKEs possibly due to a number of factors. The Primary factor would be in what the US Mint used as a final rinse and exactly "what" in the proof packaging environment contributed to this haze. The haze, IMO, is NOT the result of poor storage and could also "possibly" be the result of the adhesive used to seal the plastic lens which houses these coins. As a side note, this haze easily dips off with little to no impact to the coin itself due to the silver content and the proof finish. Your coin is in need of a quick E-Z-Est dip followed with a rinse in warm tap water, then warmed distilled water, then alcohol followed with a quick pat dry. By that I mean, lay it on a smooth paper dinnier napkins and press a folded dinner napkin onto the exposed surface. Flip the coin over and repeat.[/QUOTE]
