So you have finally answered your own question that we have been trying to answer for you all this time. I'm glad to see that your digging into...
That is very cool!!! I would have bought it as well...

Are we certain the quarter inside it has not been swapped out? It sure looks ugly and from the photo's circulated. Plus the top of the holder...
If the lines you are referring to are the ones on the cheek, then those are not on the case. Those are planchet striations.
As @SuperDave has said, the problem with high quality digital imaging is that it can magnify and create problems that don't exist. I am probably...
