I'm wondering did you dip it in acetone before sending it in?

So now what? Are you going to leave it in a details tomb? Quote:

We need to see far better pictures, where the coin is actually in focus, to be able to see the subtle details.

acetone will not cause a coin to details
for future reference. CAC was good at what they do in the way of certifying a grade using their system system. as for grading and assessing coins, I would personally refrain from using them. they should just stay what worked for them.

Impossible, this is an error on their part. These were never even circulated! Also, the coin is clearly in MINT STATE and as crisp as the minting day.
I would call them!

I don't see what they are calling environmental damage.

There also seems to be a white spot on the top of the number 9 in the date. At first I thought it was a reflection, but it is in the same spot on both pictures. I'm not saying whether that should be enough to commit this to a details grade, but just saying that maybe this is what they saw. If you do crack it open, please post some pics here of the raw coin. Thx!

Did you get their photo service with the coin? Might be easier to see on CAC images.

I cracked it out. Still dont see any environmental damage or anything of the sort. Still, its worth more out of that slab raw. I may resubmit with ngc at a later date. Crazy to me.

At this point, I agree with BadThad. Without viewing the coin in-hand, I'm not comfortable calling out 'white' features given the pics posted.
