Note about my Fiji High Relief Tiger. I bought it a while back, and had never examined it closely until taking pics of it yesterday. That's when I noticed the yellow stains on the obverse. Today, by sheer coincidence, the company from whom I had purchased it called me to sell me the upcoming US Mint Morgan and Peace dollars. The caller started by asking me about my Tiger, and I mentioned the stains. He said to send pictures and he would take it up with management, which I promptly did. His reply was essentially "It was more than four months ago so it sucks to be you. Now what about those Morgans and Peace dollars we discussed?".  Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

As I played the last round, I'll throw this round open to anyone that want's to run it.
If no takers, then I'll come up with something later.
