    Quick question...does Milk Spot stop 'breeding' when you put it in capsules? I have couple Maple with milk spots...and wonder if it will keep on spreading. If yes, then I might take them off from capsule and just fondle/play with them every now and then to make it worth their price :D

    Thank You

    Being in capsules doesn't stop milk spots. A bullion coin with high mintage and milkspots would be the ones I would fondle. :)

    its so weird hearing about milk spots. Ill just say i got a few maples......but never have any milk spots on any. Because i hear of this so often i check them like once a month.

    IMHO a maple isnt the best coin to fondle with as it will scratch and ding pretty easy. Maybe just take one out to play with as thats what ive done and its got considerable wear already.

    Canadian silver and milk spots seem to go hand in hand, maybe someone can tell us why? Refinement?
    Maple with milk spots you will still always get spot for it.
    Wolf with milk spots will still sell at a premium.

    If the milk spots bother you, they are pretty easily removed.

    I've done it easily enough myself and can confirm it's a quick, painless process
