I just found out some of my silver panda (some raw some in slabs) developed milk spots, I've checked them last week nothing was there but today when I checked them, there were milk spots. Will they fade?

@JO, there are a bunch of prior milkspot threads on CCF, but I think that the short answer to your question is "no".  Here is a good one that talks about potential cleaning methods and why or why not you should do them. http://goccf.com/t/194411

Nope they don't fade. It's so disappointing to collect Silver bullion like Pandas and they appear over time.

If you wait a few centuries, you won't notice them anymore. (someone else might though).

Sorry to hear that.
Milk spot of death is experienced my many silver collectors, including myself, and as members stated, you can not get rid of it easily.
Edit: Well, after reading more and viewing the video, I guess there are some options. However MS70 slabbed will not help you too much.

The milk spots won't fade. They are the bullion coin collector's worst nightmare.

Milk spots are dreaded. Even those in TPG holders can and do develop them. The vast majority of non-bullion collectors won't touch them once spots appear.

It is such a shame the mints have not figured out how to stop this.

They won't fade, but not everything people call "milkspots" are actually milkspots.
