Coop, you absolutely nailed it! It's damage from a sealer. But what I don't understand is why there is no damage on the plastic. If a sealer can do that much damage to a coin, the plastic would surely be noticeably damaged also.. And if they did reseal it into a new package after noticing this mistake, wouldn't they replace the coin as well?

Extreme temperature difference can cause condensation to build up on the inside. (Think of the outside of a glass of ice tea in the summer) Since all the coins exhibit some sort of staining/discoloration this seems to be a likely culprit.
Humid air was may have been present when they were packaged.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Note that the sealing of the packaging, didn't split the cello? Possibly the sealing damages the coin, not not the cello when it hits the coin. (not sharp, but flat on the cello?)

Coop- It seems like the ones that that's to have also seen damage on the cello, but maybe this one got lucky. I don't see any differences between the dime's wrapping and the other coins in particular. I also don't know much about the process, but it seems like the cello would be affected when this happens.

Tunnioc- It's from a 1969 U.C. Set, where both mints are included. Both sets have similar patterns.
