<p>[QUOTE="baseball21, post: 8381568, member: 76863"]They do it to try and hide the source of it so they're "all the same". The problem is that with the (P) ones they got discovered because they did have a slightly different look that lead people into looking into it further which the mint did as little as possible with the requests. The mint even went out of the way to try and destroy the after market premium. </p><p><br /></p><p>Every ASE box should just have a strap on it from where it's from like the West Point and SF do. Everyone would have understood that they had to make them in a new place for some overflow, or you could buy the theory and believe it was a long term marketing plan to sell more later with people hoping for a P box. The mint isnt actually as stupid as they're made out to be from collector complaining, I'd bet some people wanted them hidden and the ones with the marketing plan just let them take the lead doing so[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
