<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2362683, member: 17665"]Yep, the government hard(ly) at work. I know this is not the proper context but I worked in Quality Control throughout my career in hypodermic syringes. If I let just one through, I would be on the carpet. Thankfully very few got through and like the Mint, we made billions of them a year. And also like the Mint, many processes before they left the facility. Any number of errors might be made, wrong top/bottom web, wrong control #, smeared print on barrels, skewed print, foreign matter, warped stoppers, and many other factors. I often wonder to what standards the Mint adhere to. Are they ISO certified? Probably some form of cost cutting measures in place at the Philly Mint. Who really knows...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
