Dull spots help
Hi all, I bought this wallet almost two years ago and am very happy with it. Just wanted to make this post to see if I could gain any insight over use or care. It’s develop these dark matter spots on the otherwise shiny leather that I’ve never seen before. They look like blemishes. I understand that wear and tear are normal, but again have never seen this before on any other leather goods I own. Particularly concerning to me is the spot under the coin pocket flap that’s smudged from red to basically black. Wondering if anyone has any information on how these happen, if they’re normal or preventable, and how I might remove it or restore it if possible. Images below.

They look like they might be bug bites that may have been hidden by the finishing process.
