<p>[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 26244247, member: 101855"]The black spots in the middle of big brown spots are probably beyond repair. As someone else mentioned, The Silver War Nickels are made of an odd alloy which is very prone to spotting. When these coins were first issued, they were bright with an attractive silver color. Some thought that would last in circulation, but it didn't work out that way. They quickly became dull with a brownish cast most of the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
