GOT MY SFO PROOF DAMAGED TODAY

Just received my coin today and don't you know it's damaged.
On OBV there is a mark almost like a finger print scrached into the coin. You can see the damage both with and without magnifier.

Back it goes. Hope they can replace with a better coin before end of year that they mentioned in thier e-mail I got from them today.

    Why the Albany, NY commem? You from Albany? I am.

    This coin is going to be the rarest PRF 69 or PRF 70 coin in a long
    modern commem time. I had to send my 3 back. They say they will
    replace, but not after the 12/31 expire time. Damn it. Who cares.
    I can't believe how scuffed up mine were.

    On the other hand the Mint was kind enough to send me $20. when
    I complained about the postage costs to return coins.
    Regards, Michael
