Afternoon everyone….
Another beautiful day here in the northeast. Unfortunately it’s not going to last……. Tomorrow is supposed to be very overcast, a little cooler and by afternoon it will be raining which is going to last for over a day.
When I first got back into stacking these were the coins that caught my eye. Well I had amassed a beautiful collection of graded MS70 one ounce silver pandas. I had the entire series which began in 1983.
They weren’t as popular as they are currently, but they were very hard to find in MS70 grade. A few of them I paid as much a some semi key date Morgan’s.
Well roughly four years ago or maybe five. I was adding the newly released panda MS70 to my collection. While I was there I looked at each coin.
That’s when I lost it….
=============================
Nearly half of the coin had developed milk spots on them. This is now a commonly known fact. Silver panda coins are notorious for getting milk spots.
Well that was it for me. I lost so much money on them because of the milk spots. I sold every single one of them.
I no longer buy any silver pandas. But I do have a few gold pandas still. I even have a few graded gold pandas.
Here is one for you today…..

Nice gold panda. I don't buy them anymore either. Too bad the good weather is coming to an end, but enjoy it while it lasts!

Sending Ecency love your way, thanks for using Ecency.
Beautiful panda. I never got into them at all, mainly because I usually just buy local and not online. I have maybe 1 silver panda?
Beautiful gold panda, @silverd510!

I stopped buying Pandas since they went to 30grams.
I might buy them on the secondary only if they go for spot and without spots.
