<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Indianhead65, post: 290281, member: 103422&quot;]There was an article in Coin World not too awful long ago about the &quot;first strike&quot; or &quot;first release&quot; designation. One of the Coin World writers interviewed Mint Director Moy and asked him about TPGs labeling some coins this way. Mr. Moy stated that there is absolutely no way the Mint can determine which coins were struck first and they do not leave the Mint labeled as such. The Mint does not support the TPGs labeling slabbed coins this way, neither should anyone else. Its another gimmick fabricated by the TPGs to make them and the dealers that sell them, more money.
