On my slab, the area just north of the coin on the insert must be raised just enough to make contact with the plastic slab. Thus creating this "smudge" look. I was able to reproduce this on my NGC slabs that I looked at this afternoon. I took the slab and smacked it a few times down on a paper pad and the "smudge" miraculously disappeared. How about that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
