    The hole-like form in my W3J's COA is not on the middle, it's near the "Label not to be sold separately" print, and in the middle of the hole, some small print of 'GENUINE' in reverse order.

    And no plastic sticker. The COA label itself is shiny like plastic.

    The hole is one of the authenticity features of the COA label. Its actually a window for the holographic thread. The COA label itself is plastified and requires no additional plastic sticker on top
