    Hi everyone

    I am fairly new to stacking...so your help would be much appreciated. I recently purchased some scottsdale 10oz bars and I'm a little concerned about the milk spots and scuff marks. Will this effect the resale price and also is there anything I can do to minimise the scuffs and milk spots?

    Yes you can get rid of the spots

    It's a 10oz bar not a numi coin

    scuff mark are from stacking the bars. Milk spot will increase if handled without gloves-

    The value of such a bar is spot times it's weight.
    To make a bar look nice & shiny rub it with silver polish and a soft cloth before washing and dab drying. Repeat if necessary and it should look like new. A shiny bar looks a lot nicer than the one in your picture but in resale value there isn't a dime of difference.

    If you were correct Scottsdale would not sell any bars.

    By weight I think he means per ounce, so spot + $10 I believe ?
