Ohhhh My I am so sorry! Are you gonna put it back in the box and get a refund? What bad luck really sorry! Are you going to try and rinse it with water and pat dry?

Vicente

That is a shame.... We do expect good quality from the mint....that is surprising. If you get tired of it, let me know. Cheers, RickO

This may be a strike thru error on this coin.

Ouch! I feel for you.

You have opened the plastic holder and are sure it's on the coin not the holder, correct? That's a crying shame.

As the coin was struck so recently it is surprising if it's a carbon spot which usually takes a little time to develop. Nevertheless, down the road it will be always be perceived as one.

Good luck however you proceed!

It almost looks like it's above the surface in the photo.

That’s too bad. Don’t return it though, because you could probably whack one of these with a hammer and it would still be worth more than the issue price.

On the exterior or the interior of the plastic capsule...?

Has an almost inky look to it, likes a drop of something bleeding outward

Ouch, that looks bad. From picture it looks like it's on the coin for sure. Is it possible it's on the container looking at it in person?

I would call the mint and see if they will do an exchange. It doesnt hurt to ask.

That's unfortunate. Before returning it and not getting another SAE, I'd give you $100 to take a problem coin off of your hands.

OMG that's awful. Looks like a carbon spot, but could be some other debris....unfortunately happens.

Turns out it was a foreign substance from the mint. It was easily removed by my local coin shop with a quick dip and then pat dry carefully.

It's on the coin. That ring around it likely means that it is 'active', which means it will probably get worse and, eventually, eat into the surface of the coin. It is a foreign contaminant.
