<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1673108, member: 112&quot;]First of all, are you sure that these spots are really milk spots ? I ask because based on what I have seen posted on various forums over the years most of the spots that people call milk spots, are not milk spots at all, but spots caused by something else. And there are many different causes for spots on coins. The very same issue exists for carbon spots. What a lot of people call carbon spots are not carbon spots at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is a major difference between milk spots and carbon spots, and all other spots. Milk spots and carbon spots are &quot;in&quot; the coin, all other spots are &quot;on&quot; the coin. If you don&#039;t understand what that means then think of it this way. Milk spots and carbon spots are part of the metal itself, they (the materials causing them) are present (down inside the metal) before the coin is ever struck. All other spots are caused by something that gets onto the surface (sits on top of the surface) of the coin after the coin is struck. This is proven because carbon spots and milk spots cannot be dipped away. All other spots can be dipped away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
