Does anyone else have a Ty 2 Mint Green PCGS Box?

I have a different variety Mint Green PCGS Box,,,,, the new one.
Anyone have one or know what I am referring to?
At first I thought the box was just scratched but it is not. The shield on the top of the lid has a pattern in it that I have not seen on any of the boxes that I have seen photos of? The pattern can also be seen in the "PC" of PCGS. It has no texture to it,, so it is not a scratch,,,,, I can not feel it when I run my finger across it.

Well, I did find another similar one on eBay,,,,, not sure what has caused this? Maybe the mold was damaged at some point?
Here is the eBay box.

My green PCGS box has those same characteristics.

Those stripes are from the fiber reinforced tape they put over the top of the box before packing it up for shipping.

that was my first thought.

i always leave one side still attached so the lid is always just right there and ready to be flipped up and closed.

That just might be it.

Yes, the fiber tape will remove paint from the logo if you are not careful.

To me, it looks like the top had just gone through the machine that hot stamp the PCGS logo and the top somehow flipped on its side while on a conveyor belt and rubber rollers meant to move items along the belt rolled over the logo while it was still not set and added the pattern.

🥜 r us. Your sanity provides a wonderful contrast with all us crazies. Your right and we’re just missing the warm and welcoming atmosphere of “proper collecting “😵‍💫

Those are from the fiber tape they tape the boxes, with, if you leave it on too long, when you go to pull off the tape, it will pull the paint of the emblem/lettering.
