New Gucci Marmont belt spots

[Lady001]

so I just purchased my Marmont belt from the boutique yesterday but I see some spots on the golden GG logo. My question: is this normal or should I exchange it? I know eventually the logo will rub off and become more shiny but this one is new!
you can see the spots mainly on the botton right side of the GG logo.

That particular hardware is artificially aged (made to look old). It's probably part of the faux patina.

If you don't like that example, exchange.

Thanks and yeah i guess thats what I thought but it just seems so prominent on there. Anyway i think i will keep it because the rest of the belt is new and the size is good as well
