[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 8578516, member: 110226"]Sorry about the spots. What are they made of? Clearly this is not toning. Have you heard of Sodium Thiosulphate? I've used it to treat ancient coins with horn silver deposits. It is very effect in doing that. I don't know if it would be effective with milky spots. The process is simple: heat up some distilled water with some Sodium Thiosulphate (usually in the form of small tablets). Immerse the coin for perhaps a minute at most. Rise the coin with distilled water, dry carefully holding the coin is a soft cloth, and assess. Repeat if needed. Again, I have never tried this with a proof that has milky spots. There's a chance that it will have no effect. You might want to experiment with a low value coin with this problem first, using a low concentration and proceed from there.[/QUOTE]
