i received my transformer coins in the mail today and one is a bit unusual. its missing a stripe on the chest and its blury. the first photo is a normal coin and the second photo is the unusual coin.
I'm interested to know what people think. should I return it? or should I keep it? does anyone else have one like this?

I would return it. The problem with these pad printed coins is they are difficult to attribute as errors. While it may have happened at the mint and may indeed be an error, the printing on these can be altered with the use of solvents and acids. As such, doubt will be raised as to whether it is an error or simply tampered with.

And welcome to the forum.

G'day & welcome,
so a Transformer-coin has transformed itself: isn't that how it's supposed to be ?
Joking: I agree with Latman.
My son saw your coin and now he wants one ...

also if I tilt the coin and look at it on an angle, the image becomes clear.
