<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Wally Taylor, post: 4043471, member: 86395&quot;]Maybe slightly off topic, but in the ballpark, PCGS RESTORATION WORKERS ARE GENIUS. I had an expensive Proof Silver Eagle (over $700). It had a small milk spot when brand new. I sent it in to PCGS RESTORATION, not the $5 milk spot treatment. It was probably just a little soak in Acetone, but when I got it back, the spot was gone, and ZERO marks where it was. It cost me $70, and the grade remained at PF69, but this is a BEAUTIFUL 69, and still spot free after a year. I think it would probably be an NGC PF70. It&#039;s just one of those PCGS SILVER EAGLES with absolutely no marks at all, anywhere. All mirrored surfaces are perfect. The coin is just awesome, and it had been a PCGS PF69 with the little milk spot. When I got it back, I thought it should be a PF70 for certain, but they may have some little thing that they look for. I think it was well worth the $70, because I wanted it in my collection. I&#039;m just WAY happier having a beautiful and rare Silver Eagle PF69 that looks for all the world a PCGS PF70 WITH NO MILK SPOT. I HAVE A PAIR OF 25x surgeon&#039;s glasses, and the milk spot was completely lifted off with not even the tiniest mark. It just had to be a very tip top surface spot. Milk Spots CAN be removed by PCGS with NO DAMAGE. But it has to be a small spot, very light in color, and on a Silver finish, and not a mirror or a puffy Ultra Cameo lumpy finish. And I&#039;m certain that it was Acetone or an experimental mix. I also think it has to be a nearly new coin. I&#039;m just thrilled to have a beautiful, spot-free Eagle in my collection that I thought was a goner. I just want to say that those guys are GOOD! I wish I could send it in for CAC certification, but they don&#039;t do Silver Eagles. All that I can say is that PCGS RESTORATION SERVICE is worth a shot if You have a coin that you love.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
