Although I don’t want to say, I asked the dealer to add 999 pure gold to the name to avoid taxation, but the reason why I was taxed by the customs today is because of the dealer didn't pay attention to me, and when I wrote to ask if he missed it, his reply told me: This is a matter between me and the customs, I have to prove it myself, and he does not accept returns.what my think is i waste huge mo ney and take by someone

What's the whitish stuff on Queens face? Condensation?

I've never seen this type of marking from a capsule.  I thought gold was not supposed to mark/tarnish?  Is it 24 carat gold?

Coins have no room to wiggle

Cheap capsule that may have had some moisture or Extra plastic "dead centre" on inside. Honestly never seen anything like that before.

There's usually enough freedom for coin to breathe. Very strange.

Try heating coin gently with a hair dryer? Do not wipe it as you may scratch finish.

😢will try tomorrow   india coin company coin always expensive and they should good capsule

@JJH have you tried looking at the area in question through a loupe? May give you some indication. If there is small scratch would help to explain. In your wnd photo with the top of the capsule off it also looks like there maybe damage or the same effect to tbis again have a look at that through the loupe.

@JJH if you have no loupe then I would suggest that you try to take as best as possible (in focus) picture of the affected area. You can then crop the photo to just have this area in screen. Allowing you to in effect "zoom in" obviously not as good/clear as a loupe but you may be able to see if there is scratches or if it look like something "stuck" ontop.

It might.. it may just be trapped moisture, but if abrasion then unfortunately not.

Tag the dealer into this and see what they say?? They may have a quick explanation/remedy

I would not have thought it is moisture.  Surely the way to test is to rub one's finger on the capsule and see if the mark on the capsule comes off?

Yeah I don't either.. but the fact it's getting smaller in each picture has puzzled me..

Think it should be obvious to the OP if it's damage or not 🤣
