<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jolumoga, post: 26817736, member: 41780&quot;]I don&#039;t think you&#039;re naive. I just learned of the acidic cleaning and water bath of blanks, but I think, given that dipping was and is so widespread among silver dollars, as well as other environmental possibilities, the probability leans to post-mint handling or care. I&#039;m not an expert; I&#039;m just asking questions because as this thread shows, many collectors believe milk spots should dock from a grade, and the scary thing is they could in theory appear or get worse after a coin is slabbed. In the case of your coin, it looks great and I don&#039;t think the spot detracts much if at all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
