Lesson learned, make your packaging bomb-proof. When I ship something like that it could survive anything. Personally, I'd offer a refund and...
Classic....they were dirty so we cleaned 'em up! LOLOL I think the $15 offer was way too high....she screwed up there.
He was off by one....can't get lucky on every coin.
Well.....what's the mystery? I suspect it's just another coin that didn't meet PCGS's criteria for "the correct look".....BAH.
It's early stage verdigris, I've seen it before and removed it from red coins. It is very easily removed without effecting the coin in any way.
