Black spot on 99 silver

[SilverHive]

Hello to all, I got 2 RCM bars from ebay this week and 1 of this bar have black spot on him.

My questions is this : * on pure silver can be black/brown spots ? * there is away that it is fake bar ? * this spots can affect on the bar price ? * can/should I clean it or that ok ?

Big thanks to th e helpers ...

Yes pal there can be black/brown spots on RCM bars or any others especially  just plain bullion bars. Personally the bars as far as I can tell from photos look genuine to me. I wouldn't bother cleaning them I don't think it would make any difference to the price as they are just plain bullion bars, annoying but no big deal.

This is tarnish - silver tarnishes, sometimes it happens more than others - sometimes it is rainbow colours and the value of the item goes up. You could remove it with one of the 'silver dip' formulations around. i would not bother - a bit of tarnish on older bars can add to the value.
