red spot on a 999.9 gold coin?

That's interesting, maybe posting a picture would help everyone visualize this red spot? I have never encountered such a spot on a coin.

Here's a pic:

I've seen a couple tiny red spots on a Kruggerand I owned once, but nothing major.

I would throw it away before it infects the rest of the collection!

Exactly what I was thinking. Franks, send that coin to me immediately for decontamination and disposal. (send any others with red spots too. We wouldn't want it to spread)

I've had red spots on two different Pandas. I decided to trade them but only to avoid any counterfeit issues down the road with anything Chinese.

It looks like someone shot the buffalo a couple times, ha ha!
