<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2132125, member: 112&quot;]The first time I read what is found at that link it didn&#039;t really sink in.

As a result attempting to remove the white spot could result in making the finish of the coin worse.&quot;</i></p><p><br /></p><p>The underlining is mine, but that seems to be the most important part of the paragraph, for once the silver is consumed, and it obviously is as seen in the picture, there can be no such thing as &quot;fixing&quot; it or effectively removing the milk spots.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now that doesn&#039;t explain the cause of the milk spots, but according to the mint employee doing the writing (found at that link) there can be multiple causes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
