<p>[QUOTE=&quot;calcol, post: 2767952, member: 77639&quot;]Unless some difference can be found in the coins themselves, ASE coins slabbed as being from the P mint may not have a long-lived premium.&nbsp; If they are cracked-out and resubmitted, they will be valued much lower.&nbsp; If it should turn-out that the box labels weren&#039;t really trustworthy, then the value of those coins will plummet.&nbsp; A scandal, merger, or bankruptcy at one or more of the grading services may nullify slab labels.&nbsp; And there may be market dilution if enough ASE&#039;s get the P mint label.&nbsp; Focus should be on the coins themselves and how they are classified based on broad-based, verifiable numismatic history.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s possible that trace element analysis or die analysis may provide a more objective way of assigning ASE&#039;s to specific mints, but I wouldn&#039;t count on it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Cal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
