    For those more educated than myself, what is this brown spot near the chin. I recently bought this on eBay and I must say it looks much better in person and the spot is not as noticeable as in the pics. The seller said it was from the dye/strike. What are the experts opinions? Is it something to be concerned about and thus returned or is it a keeper? Aside from that curiosity I'm pretty pleased.

    I'm not real concerned about the others, they were hardly noticeable. And again in person even the one on the cheek is slight. Still, I did notice it and wanted y'all opinion. Other than that I'm happy. I wasn't sure what it was and was curious. With ebay its hard to know what you have until in hand due to diff pic qualities. It's why I always take advantage of returns. think it's worth keeping? He wanted 180, I offered 150 and PCGS had it priced at 180.
