Mine has the same thing. If you turn it one way into the light it looks like it vanishes. if you look strait on it looks like some kind of yellowish grease smear.

My medal looks pretty good, no spots, dings, or other artifacts.

My only complaint is some lint inside the capsule.

This pic was taken by someone who got theirs. I felt compelled to share it here due to how gorgeous the lighting and setup highlights the design

You didn't get yours yesterday? Mine hit the sort center at 4:22 but didn't complete until 9:10. Must be that I got lucky and my driver spent extra time drinking his coffee so that my box could make it on his truck.

Ah, no, it is fine. That is just a cropped version of the photo I posted earlier (original size, not scaled as before). It was taken with my Droid Maxx, which is not the best camera. Also, the coin is still in the holder, which always takes from the fidelity.

Also, note that the boundary edge where the white is not the coin edge, it is between the coin edge and the holder edge. The flatness (I see it now) may be an artifact of the circle crop tool in Paint.net software.

Just checked ebay. 837 closed auctions. That's WAY higher than where it was at this time with the Truman sets. That doesn't include any multiple item listings that still have stock.
