That's flat out silly hiding that spotting.
You can dip it.
It's an $8 coin either way.

Unless you already have it, the dip will cost more that the coin is worth.

Were you looking specifically for the 71-S silver coin? Or just a silver Ike dollar of any date? Edited by Dearborn

That black is never good, more than likely it's the terminal state of corrosion and cannot be removed without damaging the coin.

That looks for all the world like actual, biological mould. Which ought to be impossible on a silver coin.

Try to get a refund, if you can.

So far, I haven't done anything with this coin. I didn't even try to wash it with soap and water. I don't want to do anything until the seller responds to me. Quote:

Quote:Were you looking specifically for the 71-S silver coin? Or just a silver Ike dollar of any date? I found it on the seller's page. I didn't have a goal to buy exactly 71-S. I thought buying an Eisenhower silver dollar would be great. By the way, I paid 1716 rubles ($18.85) for it. |

Uptade. The seller agreed to the return of the goods. I've already sent him the coin back and now I'm waiting to get my money back.

Good that your getting your money back on this one. Black spots generally do not come off silver or copper coins. The only thing you can really do with these is Coin Care or MS-70 can seal the spots so if they are active it will stop the spots from growing. That this is example of a coin that just needs to go in a 40% SILVER bag. I would not buy this coin as except as just 40% SILVER and it would have to be cheap (like as part of a full set where they are other nice coins in it).
