This has now been fixed and it should not longer display incorrectly.

Marcus, after revisiting this again, I see it was indeed best for you to address the issue (I just didn't think it was do-able).
In thinking back, I remember some players commenting on the GG subreddit about how they had an old Gold/Silver/Bronze medal on Vietnam, but they had since become more serious about Platinums (perhaps because Platinum wasn't originally in Explorer Mode, judging by what I've read).
Since the Vietnam map wasn't available at that point, players couldn't address the one 'blemish' on their profile. Those players should feel better now since it should no longer read something like '114 Platinums and 1 Gold.'

It likely due to one of the issues already stated by MMtracy, but I will pop it along to the team to see if there is something we can do about it.

I understand why this looks strange, but this isn't a bug. Some people have 115/114 or even 116/114 because of some historical weirdness in the game.
TL;DR: a couple maps have been removed, but people played those maps and earned medals, so those achievements aren't gone, they're just hidden.
Number 1 on this list is Vietnam. There used to be an Explorer Mode map, but around late July / early August 2022, all Gmaps coverage was deleted. The GeoDevs then had to remove the official map in Explorer Mode.
Number 2 is about the Turkey/Türkiye spelling. This was a GeoDevs issue. Around two years ago, the GeoDevs re-titled the Turkey map to Türkiye, and in the process removed everybody's Explorer Mode medals. People who noticed this quickly enough were able to replay the map and earn another medal. After about 24hrs, the devs fixed the issue and re-applied the previous medals. However, some people did earn the additional medal, so that's now hidden in the shadow realm. (This is why I have 115/114 currently.)
I'm not familiar with any other examples. If Vietnam ever does come back to the game, it will be interesting to see how the devs handle that. :)
