<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Midas, post: 52284, member: 2761&quot;]That is why you will hear in this forum to buy the coin first and NOT the slab.&nbsp; That is the trouble with buying &quot;sight-unseen&quot; coins, even those graded by PCGS, NGC, etc., unless you can see it and hold it yourself.&nbsp; Honestly, I would have probably purchased the coin as you did...and not expect a blemish as you described.&nbsp; However, I always check the return policy as many sellers offer returns on PCGS coins IF the slab has not been tampered with or abused.</p><p><br /></p><p>A &quot;milky&quot; white spot could have occured after the coin was slabbed.&nbsp; I have seen some Proof SAE&#039;s tone in PCGS slabs and for all intensive purposes, a milky white spot is a serious blemish and &quot;should&quot; lower the grade further below MS69.</p><p><br /></p><p>Check the seller&#039;s return policy.&nbsp; The seller will state that he didn&#039;t grade the coin, PCGS did, so he is excused from seller disclosure...but he should have pointed out such a serious defect to this coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
