It's the way chrome cards are sometimes inside a PSA case. Eye appeal is not great but for the most part the card is fine and I would not worry too much about it. Explained in more detail somewhere on PSA's site and also on the forums here somewhere, just have to search for it.

So nothing to worry about?
That’s a relief

Yeah, it's called "Newton Rings". Very common with chrome cards. Can definitely be an eye sore, but has no impact on the condition of the actual card.

Nah that's normal, it's very common in fact. I think it's because the card is sticking to the case a little bit. Not really sticking but pressed up against it, hard to explain. But i think it's nothing to worry about. Try standing the case upright and giving it a good tap on a hard surface like a table or your kitchen counter a few times. It might move it just enough to make those spots go away. It's worked for me in the past.

Here is an article that PSA put out about this.

Horrible. If that was not disclosed prior I would request a refund unless you're okay with it

You moron.
It's a light refraction called Newton Rings.

Way to come in and offer no constructive insight, when the previous posters already explained what the (known) issue was. Bravo!

I know what they are. They are hideous, and should be disclosed. There are many of the exact same card without the newton rings. This is very common on Mahomes 2017 Prizm cards in PSA holders. They stick to the holder and look terrible. I was simply saying if it was not advertised I would request a refund as I would want one without the front sticking to the holder.
Signed,

It's advertised as a PSA 10 and the buyer got a PSA 10. How is the item not as advertised?

I’m just thrilled I didn’t get scammed and the card isn’t ruined
