Just my personal opinion on this is that when you purchase silver bars and rounds in the smaller sizes you do expect to get new pieces that are shiny and nice to view, not something that is scratched and dented. Its like buying a new stove, you do not want scratchs and dents. It is not normally the intention of folks who are buying the smaller pieces to melt them down and reuse for building aircraft or...I know I would ask to return for replacement. All of my 10 oz are in seperate plastic holders and were always shipped packed and I mean really packed in bubble wrap, usually wrapped and packed in bubble wrap , just like the coin roils are always wrapped and then packed even though they are already in protective tubes. I can see a few marks on the 100 oz bars as they are not normally purchased by investors, but are more for reuse. JMO
