Stack Ravaged by Milk Spots

So I go to check on my beloved stack today, and am devastated to see that nearly every one of my ounces has developed milk spots.... has this happened to anyone before?

I actually went out of my way to try to prevent any tarnish or milk spotting from happening. It is stored in a 'tarnish resistant' box, with a dessicant pack, and in air tite capsules!! Wtf! I have a few theories as to what could have caused this- a leather pouch recently added to inside the box, or the air tite cases themselves (trapped humidity?)

What do you guys think? Pretty bummed about it tbh

Unrealistic College Gold stack- 1.5 years

-Hey everyone this is my gold stack as a senior in undergrad after 1.5 years.

-I live at home and have a full ride so my bills are very low since my parents pay for food and like no rent.

- I am a history nerd so that explains the Constantine VII solidus up there. Let me know your thoughts and on what I should add next!

Mintbuilder or Monument for gold bars?

I’ve never purchased physical online, and I’m conflicted.
Mintbuilder seems to be lower by a few dollars but want to know what your top choices are

Please help identify

I know the picture isn’t too great, but this piece has been staring at me for the past few weeks, just can’t find anything on it. Looks like an eagle though.

EDIT: Is not mine, is for sale at my LCS for spot.

Thrift find.

I work at a thrift store and someone donated these today. About 560 grams of sterling. My best find yet.

Slight Monday pick ups

Picked up a 1 gram gold PAMP bar, a IGR 1/2 gram gold bar, a 10 gram silver Viking ship, and a 2025 35th anniversary 1/10 platinum Kookaburra. Traded some odd ball platinum pieces like my Franklin mint mini coin (1.3 grams) and Valcambi 1 gram platinum bar along with almost $100 cash ($221 total) for the Kook, think it was worth it?

Thinking about starting a digital gold app in India is this actually a business?

I have been looking into the digital gold space in India and noticed there are only a few major players like Augmont and SafeGold, while apps like Jar, Gulak, etc. seem to work with partners and take a commission.

I'm thinking about building a new digital gold platform.

My Idea is actually in jewellery retail, but I don't have a big showroom or huge inventory. If a customer orders a design, I can source and make it when needed.

The idea is similar to digital gold - customers could buy/sell small amounts whenever they want. For selling, I'm also wondering if there's a way to offer trade/exchange instead of making the customer take the full buy-sell spread.

For sourcing, I'm thinking of buying from bullion suppliers, getting it refined and minted, and holding the corresponding gold.

I'm still at the idea stage, so I want some honest opinions from people who understand the jewellery and gold business.

Does this sound like a real business opportunity, or am I overthinking a random idea? What am I missing?
