<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 1278568, member: 31533&quot;]There&#039;s another forum where a member has reprinted the email from a distributor about milk spots, and the RCM telling them it&#039;s a planchet cleaning/prep process problem they&#039;ve had since 1988, but they don&#039;t care and have no intention of changing anything because the coins are bullion and not collector coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>The distributor is basically saying that when they get the coins in they can&#039;t return them or inspect them, so whoever gets them gets them. Customers of the distributor can return them, but the customer is charged a fee for restocking.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, from what I&#039;ve read so far, including this, about milk spots, and peoples attempts to take them off (at times, unsuccessfully).....it might due to the metal having acid baths that are not rinsed completely off before being struck to coins. It results in either immediate or shortly afterwards having milk spots. I think that the costs of improving the quality for bullion coins is a decision the RCM just doesn&#039;t want to incur.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So... quality is not an inherent right when you purchase bullion I guess. At least with Canada.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
