    Canada's supposed to be producing milk spot free coins as of 2018 but as you seen his collection had a 2019 coin with spoting

    A quality jeweler's cloth works well on the maples. Saw milking on the rims even on the early 2018s. Rims have it on all earlier maples. Britannias have it on the rims even today. Can't get it off the rims with the jeweler's cloth. The Queen's Beasts have it. I consider these coins as bullion.

    Wow man that is cool. I had never actually seen the process but that is super cool, and you're definitely right. There is a stark difference between those tonings and the toning on the walking liberty coin. It is interesting how not all of the coins toned. I wonder why that would be. Man those purples are beautiful, but the greens and yellows on that other coin is AMAZING!

      The greens are what makes it genuine, you can't fake the green.

    "This or that"... I really don't see much difference in appeal = none. My suggestion for curing milk spots on coins -- melt them.. put them out of their misery.

    Great job on the toning. But I wonder if the LCS would buy them back at a reasonable premium?

    • @LenHere
      @LenHere  Před 2 lety +1

      The LCS will almost never return any premium on non ASE's in my experience.

    The toning looks cool. Would there be a difference between sell price if they were toned or milk-spotted?

    • @LenHere
      @LenHere  Před 2 lety +2

      Probably not, as far as the LCS is concerned silver is silver, (they might clean the toning off) and you never recover the premium on CML’s anyways.

    After artifical toning, if you still want to get rid of the now hidden milkspots, just polish the coin with a silver cleaning cloth thoroughly. Of course, the toning will also disappear. And you should not worry about possible micro-scratches, which are not to be seen without a magnifier...it's just Bullion.😉
    Anyways, I prefer these magic rainbow colors and just gave that cleaning hint to you, if you'd change your mind one day...😉 Keep Stacking.

    • @LenHere
      @LenHere  Před 2 lety +1

      There is no such thing as artificial toning. Accelerated toning would be more accurate ;)

      I turned 41 mile spotted Britts into spotless beauties with fine polish and TLC. Like you say "it's just bullion" and come sell time I will get the best price for them.

    Is it true that coins by Perth mint and Royal Canadian mint do not get milk spots? Or is it, less milk spots then other mints?
    Is there a way to store gold and silver coins to maintain their shininess?

    • @LenHere
      @LenHere  Před rokem +2

      Milk spots are not preventable because it comes from the minting process.
