Is the white on the gold coin rubbed against the plastic shell?

The swirl detail on queens hair and the rim are likely high points on the coin, these align with marks on capsule.

The circle on the capsule looks to be dead centre but slightly uneven. In transit the coin has traveled by boat, plane, lorry or all three. Most likely on the boat or plane the vibrations from the engine and the angle of the package has vibrated the coin in such a way as to make it rotate inside the capsule over a number of hours. The uneven circle mark on the capsule can be explained by either the force of gravity or a minor difference in clearance on the capsule. The white mark on coin is most likely to be pulverised plastic from the capsule.

I agree, now with the clearer pictures from @JJH it look to be more of abrasion markings, rather than moisture or acid as @James32 and others first thought. To confirm this at least in theory, you could get a compass and measure (carefully so not marking the coin) the circle type ring on the capsule, and see if that alignment to the high spot (and marking) on the coin fit together. Hope that makes sense?

The inside of the circle mark on capsule will be dead centre if its from rotation 👍 95% sure it is.

he say when it sent it is perfect but it Opened by customs when exporting from Germany

It sounds like the OP said it was exported from Germany, although I can't see any post from him to that effect, perhaps a PM?

Tavex head office is in Lithuania or somewhere. I tried to check via Google, but it was unclear on any of their multiple websites, at least not without spending more time than I wished to.

But as usual, it wouild do no harm for the OP to name the suppying dealer, although people seldom do, for some inexplicable reason.

The most interesting part of this topic is that the OP appears to have paid a lot of import tax because the dealer failed to attach a complete and accurate customs label / invoice as he had been requested, and as should be standard practice.

To tell the customer it is his problem sounds like poor service.

This is very true, aslo as @JJH said the seller doesn’t accept returns... but the seller is the person responsible for ensure the product arrives in satisfactory condition. Although i do understand it then becomes an issue to "prove blame".

So if gold rubs against the capsule, will it wear out? Who is harder?

Doubt german customs would be interested in it.

I paid on 12/13, and the other party told me that he had to submit the documents to the customs for confirmation for several days before submitting the express delivery, and when dhl got it for export, the customs inspected it for several days, I don’t know if they are took it for breakfast and droolScreenshot_2023-01-31-09-00-06-481_com.android.chrome.thumb.png.a41f9297655a5d5655e42761f53b922d.png

The other side is hardly active here Seriously, indeed I don't think the white is the seller's fault, it's just that if it is shipped to me, it will cause friction, so why is it that the East India company produced it and delivered it to him without wear?, I just questioned the other party if He helped me express the purity, and then his answer made me feel unhappy. At that time, I hadn't opened the gold coin and found the white color, and I never said anything about returning it.Screenshot_2023-01-31-08-22-34-914_com.google.android_gm.thumb.png.055468286b1fa0d2316b608b6addb8d7.pngaAlthough he sent another letter to tell me that if I kindly explained to the customs, they would believe it, but they didn’t believe the evidence after the fact that the thing was in my hands, but the tax is not a factor that I regret buying.
