Some were minted at Philly that was discovered during the freedom of information request and could only be identified from sealed monster boxes. It's listing the mintage of the Philly ones not the total for all of the mints
well that's what I was thinking. its like all these first day issue slabs, lol really? does that magically make it worth more? idk im a new collector so what do I know.
I don't think it makes them worth more, so i wouldn't pay more. Some people may disagree, and be willing to pay more for the holder, though.
Some do yes. The market does generally give some premium to them. Show labels can be worth more as well. It just depends on the label and the coin. It's up to every collector to decide if that's something worth it to them or not to pay the extra the market has assigned to them Not a marketing scheme, its an ASE minted at Phily that's exactly what it says it is. Whether or not that adds value to someone is up to them but its not a scheme.
