I always circle back on the fact the OP was blocked by at least one employee of PCGS.
Imagine what that would take. To block someone from emailing or contacting you.
I suppose that'll just remain a mystery as to why and the circumstances that would lead up to that happening.

With some it takes very little. It would not be surprising if someone does not want to deal with it even if they are at fault.

The gold indicates proof finishes. The finishes in the photos are dull. The silver are matte, which should have been proof. Will be a very expensive complete "set" to collect with those premiums, and as they work their way into Batman, Wonder Woman, etc. I expect less participation.

the silver won't look good in matte tho

As mentioned, the outer plastic gasket for this generation holder has been removed. I have seen scores of coins in holders like this before. Sometimes folks do it because the original outer plastic gasket gets damaged and snags on everything, sometimes it is done to obtain a "donor" to fix a Doily holder that has lost its gasket and sometimes it is done because folks like a more uniform size with their rattlers.

Regardless of how it was done, it didn't leave PCGS like that and is simply missing the outer plastic ring.

I think he’s trying to make fun of the posts by @lordmarcovan .

I think it's an extreme dryer coin. The coin is overall pounded flat (much like you'd see in a coin put through a gemstone polisher) with the coin's rim spooned out then folded back over across the coin's faces.

The 1959-D wheat penny authenticated by the US Treasury had a lot of potential but didn't get much traction.
