QB completer 1oz proof - conservation or exachange?

[Touvex]

just got mine from the post office today, very nice coin in person, but i did notice a few things, some scuff near the white lion and a small spot near the falcon (does anyone recnognise what these are?). do you think i should call RM and exchange - not sure they'd have more - or just send it off for conservation and slab? thanks.

This scratch on the lion is complitely unacceptable. Ruins the coin value to something close to spot.

 

i would definitely exchange or sell it to me for gold plus 5% 😂
 

i think there is a defect under queens head too.

Exchange. Join the club of those of us who have sent ours back. Quite a few of us so far!

You mean JC under the queens head ?

Will send it back - thanks guys.

Funny thing is that there is a QC sticker in the other side haha...

Have you removed the top of the capsule? It's hard to tell if the defect is on the surface of the coin.  I've seen a few of these with frosting issues this would be the first with scratches in the field I've seen.

When buying a proof coin at 100%+ over spot then except nothing less than perfection.

BTW the (imperfection under the Queens portrait is JC's initials)
