Some reflections of my chandelier may appear as white spots upon the book, but by comparing the same areas in different photos you will see that these spots are merely reflections of the aforementioned lighting fixture. Graded books may have scuffs or Newton Rings the'rainbow effect' or'Newton Rings' are a normal occurrence when two different plastics (which have different refractive indexes) are placed together.

It's what you sometimes see on a smartphone screen protector or on the edges of an LCD screen. This is a result of the inner sleeve (which holds the book) contacting the hard-plastic outer shell; the two different plastics have different refractive indexes and that sometimes creates a rainbow effect when they come into contact. CGC does not consider'Newton Rings' to be defects. They do not affect the grade or condition of the book in any way, shape or form. I offer both domestic and worldwide.
