Just got mine in the mail. I bought my usual 3 sets and got 8696-98 on the SF notes and 3415-17 on the NY notes. Interesting side note. On the SF 8697 there was a small blue handwritten sticky note that said 8697 on it. So I guess they do that so they give you consecutive numbers and someone forgot to remove the sticky note. Oh, wow, maybe I can throw that set up on eBay and make a couple thousand cause of the "mint" sticky note!!!
