The fact that the user name and date look like they have been photoshopped into the picture is also suspicious.
I was going to say that. Why photoshop your name and date?

Sorry to to this do you OP, but it is pretty important to know what you're buying.

This picture provides overwelming eveidence that this coin is peeled.
I think the miffman has done an excelent forensic job here.
I would like to hear what wheresmycoin has to say about that picture?
It is not unlikely that wheresmycoin was not aware of this untill now?
It would also great if the previous owners could be tracked....example who did wheresmycoin get the coin from, and who did that person get the coin from. It seams that there is someone in the line of owners who is up to no good.... It would be good if that person could be public known.
In case the original post should be deleted (by mistake, ofcause).... this is the coin in question:

It's been tampered with at least. May not have been completely peeled but enough to make the honeycomb effect and possibly reveal the private key.
Sadly I've peeled a few in my time (regret it now years later) and that's what it looks like.

Something is up with that hologram though.

Looks like its been peeled.
It does while other pics make it look like it's not.
The 3rd from the bottom in the OP. The bottom section has the honeycomb pattern.
Maybe it is because I have never seen a redeemed one in person before.
Great catch! No honeycomb pattern should be visible at all unless the hologram has been tampered with. The fool proof way to see if the coin is really loaded is to check the short key on the blockchain. In this case the coin does still have BTC1 loaded on it -> http://blockexplorer.com/address/142fuYHGtMifp3ofY9pCu4nd9mFVqqKms9
This would really not be effective. It would be possible that a prior owner had recorded the private key of the coin after tampering with the hologram and would later redeem the funds associated with the private key/address. Please add username timestamped pics.
