<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPeace$, post: 3032763, member: 42727&quot;]I understand your point.&nbsp; The flip is abrasive vs. the surface of the coin.&nbsp; If there&#039;s any movement it&#039;s susceptible to scuffing the piece some.&nbsp; Also, taking it out of the flip will invariably cause some friction.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m also not saying this didn&#039;t happen at NGC from mishandling.&nbsp; I&#039;m just suggesting that the storage flip might have caused some of it.&nbsp; The surfaces are so delicate to even minor contact with an abrasive surface.</p><p><br /></p><p>I worked at Custom Packaging company at one point in my career.&nbsp; We had a packaging engineer that I talked with frequently.&nbsp; I&#039;m not an expert nor did I sleep in a Holiday Inn Express last night, but I did learn that vibration frequency plays a huge role in packaging.&nbsp; Even though you carefully put your bubble wrapped flip in a bubble wrap filled box does not mean that it didn&#039;t vibrate a lot during shipment.&nbsp; Sometimes too much packaging exacerbates the problem.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, I&#039;m sorry to hear about the change in your Medal&#039;s condition.&nbsp; Where it was caused, I can&#039;t tell you.&nbsp; I&#039;m just offering another possibility.&nbsp; I hope get the issue resolved to your satisfaction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
