Yes the only way to tell the difference is if the monster box of ASE's are shipped to the TPG sealed in the box with the mint label. Then the TPG will slab it according to the date, early release, if it left the mint within thirty days of the coin's initial release, and then a (W) or an (S) according to where it was minted. Once the strap on the box has been cut, the graders will no longer designate a mint for bullion coins.
